Sharpen your project management skills and prepare for the latest PMP®/CAPM® exam
The Project Management Workbook and PMP/CAPM Exam Study Guide is a two-in-one resource for mastering the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®). As the companion to Project Management: A Systems Approach to Planning, Scheduling, and Controlling, this book provides the opportunity to strengthen your understanding of project management in real-world application, with questions, problems, and cases designed to enhance your critical thinking skills. Functioning as a stand-alone study guide to the Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification Exam, this book helps you develop the critical skills of a successful project manager with questions that show you what to expect on exam day. Interesting, enjoyable, and thought-provoking, this workbook and study guide helps you dig into the PMBOK and gain the professional insights that come only from applying what you've learned.
Reading the PMBOK doesn't fully prepare you to pass the PMP exam, let alone function as a project manager in the real world. Understanding how to apply the various methodologies is vital to your success, and this book gives you a wealth of guided practice to hone your skills in advance.
* Practice applying project management concepts
* Test your grasp of the PMBOK methodology
* Preview the PMP with simulated exam questions
* Enhance your critical thinking and project management skills
The project manager's role is broad in scope and detailed in function. Don't try to memorize the PMBOK, internalize it; this approach gives you a ready body of knowledge available for recall as needed, and helps you become a more efficient, more effective project manager. Instinctive knowledge comes from copious practice, and the Project Management Workbook and PMP/CAPM Exam Study Guide is your ideal resource for developing your skills.
