Mastering the NEW PMI Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® Exam (2023 Version)
Par Klaus Nielsen, Giampaolo Marucci, Jean-Luc Favrot. 2024
Project Management Institute (PMI) is the leading professional association for project management, and the authority for a growing global community…
of millions of project professionals and individuals who use project management skills. PMI offers several certifications in the areas of project management, risk management, and other related areas. The Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®) is one credential offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI). The CAPM® is an entry-level certification for project practitioners. Designed for those with less project experience, the CAPM® is intended to demonstrate candidates’ understanding of the fundamental knowledge, terminology, and processes of effective project management. This certification is a popular prerequisite that helps employers find the professionals most suited to fulfill specific roles in their organizations. Most study guides just explain the contents of the exam without providing tools to maximize learning. The authors, as authorized training partners with PMI, translate the new 2023 examination content outline into what exam takers need to do and know in preparation for the exam. It also provides them with exercises and prep questions as a quick and easy check to ensure they are on the right path in preparation for the exam, thus maximizing their chance of passing.Be Bulletproof: How to achieve success in tough times at work
