PMP Exam Update Pushed to January 2016

Project Management Institute’s Project Management Professional (PMP)® Exam Update Pushed to January 2016:
The date for the PMP Exam Update has been pushed back from November 2, 2015, to January 12, 2016. The last day to take the current version of the exam will be Monday, January 11, 2016. Effective Tuesday, January 12, all test takers will receive the revised version, including re-takes.

As previously discussed, the PMP Exam, like all PMI certification exams, is continuously reviewed and updated to reflect changes in the profession. A recent Role Delineation Study (RDS) and resulting Exam Content Outline (ECO) have prompted the pending revision.

An update to A Guide to the Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) also results in an exam revision, although the 6^th Edition of the PMBOK® Guide is not scheduled until 2017.

Take a PMP Certification Boot Camp class now and get certified before the changes.
“The instructor was excellent. The material was presented in an engaging way with a focus on how to use it for the exam. The exercises were presented several times to allow for different learning styles and the supplemental handouts (the dry erase fill in board for the 47 processes and the flash cards for the processes, inputs, tools/techniques, and outputs) are a HUGE HELP.”
