Yes, I have been gone for a while. I have been regrouping (…more on that later)
So this last week I attended the Ultimate PMP Exam prep Course. A one week intensive geared towards learning the oh-so-complicated PMBOK and taking (and passing) the PMP exam.
Why, you ask? Well, I have long debated going back to school to get an MBA with a focus on Planning vs getting a PMP from the Project Management Institute.
PMP won! After 4 years of keeping my seat warm I have accrued enough project management hours to fill out the application. Work paid for the training and the test (BTW I highly recommend the training provider of the course I attended).
I will be in study mode for the next week. I am scheduled to take the exam on Friday.
Stay tuned…
It's official. I passed the test and I am a certified project management professional.
