Applicants for the examination of professional certification (PMP) project management have been frequent these days. But they must fill out an application form to qualify for consideration. This certification is as important as study for their major examinations in the school. However, it is more special than that. It is because you are required to take a training course for PMP and professional experience prior to the submission.
You can start to prepare through an initial application. In this application, you are going to write the experience and training that you've made and projects have led and managed. However, this implementation varies in extent are holding that:
High school diploma: If only finished high school, it is only necessary to meet 60 months of professional experience as a manager of project and 35 hours of project management training contacts. Then burn at least 7,500 hours of core tasks and project director.
Degree: you only need to cover up to 36 months worth of your PMP experience. As well as diploma holders, they must have 35 hours of project management training. In your experience, you must register 4,500 hours in the direction and administration of projects.
If you have completed all the requirements, you will receive a letter are verified to conduct the review. You will receive a set of audit if ever the PMI found their application well. After submitting your initial application, have been given 90 days to complete everything.
Anyway, the Project Management Institute (PMI) is having its audit professionals and writers to review your application and confirm that what has been written in the application form is true and valid. There are 5 days to continue with the initial review process. It will be reviewing the projects achieved and to consider it thoroughly.
Auditors professionals and writers is, unfortunately, has not been able to review all forms of applicants. This method of auditing is performed randomly by the PMI to ensure the formation of PMP and experience is maintained after the adoption. So everything that has to do now is complete the course and obtained 1 year for.
Now that he has passed an application, it is time to make some preparation. The first thing you should do is study. Like when you were in school, study everything you need to learn for most likely to pass the test.
I know that it is exploring a lot of people, but most of them were not able to memorise what they are studying or understand. For me, it is an effective way to study to use their own style to do so. Each person has their own way and learning methods. Use it and try to understand the topic in its own way. You could start by reading manuals and materials of PMP. Understand project management theories and trying to apply it. Then, if you are unsure of himself, he can now practice with example of test questions. See where you are strong and at the same time, where you're weak. Train yourself to answer 200 questions within 4 hours. Remember always stay calm; not be too nervous. If you do, you will have the tendency to forget what has been learned or blocked mental.
It is not difficult to apply for a PMP exam. It only focuses on studying and training to answer each question with confidence. Most adults preparing for at least 5-7 hours a week. I am sure that could do it. All of these are certainly sufficient in order to achieve its goal of becoming a certified project management professional.
