Taking Project+ beta?

[Jill West]

Anyone else taking the Project+ beta? What are you doing to study in addition to reviewing the objectives?

I've never really looked at Project+, until really just now. Seems like a lot of what I see here is stuff I got in College. So perhaps the PMBOK would be a great resource. /r

I think I'm going to put in an expense request with my college for this beta (I used to teach the PMP stuff for Boston University on premises here in Canada, so I love writing anything project management-related).

What I plan to do to prepare for it is treat the detailed objectives like a knock-down list and Google anything I don't recognize

I already took it, last Saturday. -> Took the CompTIA Project+ beta

I pludged the exam: went in fully unprepared, aside from glossing over the objectives to see what I was getting myself into.

PMBOK is one resource that I have seen others refer to as well... Good sugestion!

The PMBOK is the gold-standard for PMI based Project Management. A cursory look shows that about 80-90% of the material in Project+ is covered in the PMBOK, and, as the old rule says:

Objectives + Google = Study Guide.

Yep, this is my typical approach. Adding PMBOK to my review checklist as well this time.
