PROJECT MANAGEMENT ESSENTIALS (SIXTH EDITION)

Project Management Essentials is a Project Management Study Guide for the beginner to intermediate project management student. A great introduction to the PMBOK® Guide, it covers key PMBOK® Guide Sixth edition topics, touching on essential building blocks for success in real world project management. In 2022 the PMI announced the PMP Exam and CAPM Exam would be based on the PMBOK® Guide Seventh Edition but most students gravitate towards earlier editions like the Sixth that better cover the basics of project management. As an agent for effective communication and integration, the project manager is the conduit for a "network of knowledge" created throughout the project from a variety of sources. It is therefore imperative for the project manager to understand key concepts. PMBOK® Guide Essentials is designed to help the project manager achieve this as well as build a strong foundation in preparation for the PMP® or CAPM® exam. This book covers core project management topics including: - Project management concepts and definitions - Project management processes for a project - The five process groups - The ten Knowledge Areas - The 49 project management processes - Study tips for PMI exams
