It makes me to think twice before applying for PgMP.

Specifically, the PMBOK© Fourth Edition will become the basis for the PMP© exam on July 1, 09, the CAPM© exam on August 1, 09 and the PMI-SP(sm) and PMI-RMP(sm) exams on September 1, 09. The Standard for Program Management Second Edition along with the PMBOK© Fourth Edition will become the basis for the PgMP(sm) exam on September 1, 09.

However, since every candidate is encouraged to read the associated standard for the certification they seek, every candidate testing after the cut-over date should order the new standard(s) as soon as possible. To order directly from the PMI, visit their marketplace at http://www.pmi.org/Marketplace/Pages/default.aspx]]>

I told them that hiring project managers after requirements were documented would greatly reduce the already poor success rate that they are experiencing and thus worsen the relationship with their business counterparts. What other advice would you share with this company?]]>

For the PgMP exam, you MUST have relevent experience. Without experience, I doubt you will be able to pass the exam becasue it is scenario based. You must read the Program Management Standard at least 3-7 times. Pay attention to order of activities in the different processes. Know the inputs and outputs cold. Review the terms. This exam is the hardest of all PMI exams, but if you have good program management experience you will have an advantage.]]>

However, I must say that if your goal includes really learning the topics of the exam rather than just getting a brainwashing of exam topics, then I would suggest a much different path which would take several months and years of experience.

For the PgMP exam, stay with the smaller companies. Terminus, Crosswinds and others do a much better job than the larger training companies due to small class sizes (usually no more than 6 people). Also, make sure that the instructor is someone who as actually taken and passed the PgMP exam.]]>

1. Small class size
2. Taught by a PgMP (someone who has actually seen the test)
3. Realistic sample test questions
4. Multiple quizzes throughout the training days to reinforce the information
5. Memory maps
6. At least 3 days in length (perfer 4 days training and take the exam on the 5th day)
7. Several sources of information if class will use others books as a basis for training
8. Require pre-reading of the Program Management Standard]]>
