Additional information:

There have been many changes to the PMP Exam and the PMI Standard over the past several years that have direct and indirect impact to the Project Management Profession. Some of the changes are evolutionary, some are blunt, all are critical to becoming a project manager of the future and need to help yourself and the team grow. Some items that will be discussed:

• The new PMBOK guide and the concept of Value Driven Delivery and Guiding Principles.

• Dive into the 8 Performance Domains and how they interact with each other throughout the project life.
• Explore the new Exam Content Outline and understand how it addresses the People, Process, and Business Acumen Domains.
• Use Standards+ to locate content.
• Prepare your PMO to embrace these changes and become an organization measured through Value Driven Delivery.

This workshop provides an opportunity for you to understand “what’s new” and apply the concepts in a learning environment. It is designed for existing PMP credential holders and how the changes impact the profession. It helps the existing PMP holder to learn the new standards, exam content outline, and the evolution of project management as a critical component for delivering change in an organization.
