Written by For me, the hard part was all of the memorization. The concepts themselves were pretty straight forward, but which processes went with which knowledge areas? Which tools and techniques could be used for which processes? I thought that I could just learn some of this logically, but the truth became apparent, that I needed help.
I tried to find some help sheets and tips and tricks for the PMP exam and looked all over the Internet. I found some interesting information, in an eclectic type of way. I finally ran into a note that pointed to some flash cards. The flash cards were amazing. They had the type of information about knowledge areas, process groups, tools and techniques, in an easy to learn format! What I really liked about the flash cards is that I could take a stake with me anywhere. I could pull out the cards when I was standing in line, or waiting for a call. The flash cards that I found the most helpful are the PM FLASHCARDS by Cornelius Fitchner. About 1700 flash cards and a very good price. Flash cards made the difference for me, and it can for you too.
If you find you still need the 35 contact hours of Project Management training, Cornelius Fitcher also has a podcast called The PM-Prepcast. It is one of the best training available, 120 lessons for only $99. It includes a mini exam and a certificate when you complete the course and pass the exam. It is PMI approved training, and absolutely the best price for the value. Just take a look at The PM-Prepcast, and see if you won’t agree with me on it as the best value for the money.
