What does the PMBOK edition update mean for your PMP?
I received an email this morning from Christine on behalf of ESI International about a free webinar to help navigate the differences between the 3rd and 4th editions of the PMBOK guide.
“The current, PMBOK® Guide–Fourth Edition, published by The Project Management Institute (PMI®), includes changes in three categories: consistency, clarification, and coverage. These changes refine ambiguity, increase coherency, and add detail to areas that were lacking or non-existent in previous editions. Process flow diagrams have been replaced by data flow diagrams, and a new appendix focusing on interpersonal skills has been added.
The free ESI webinar is a chapter-by-chapter review, presented by Joseph R. Czarnecki, PMP, Senior Advisor, Instructional Design, ESI. From walkthroughs to side-by-side comparisons
with the previous edition, the review highlights the differences within each PMBOK® Guide knowledge area to help project management professionals identify and understand the more significant changes, as well as the impact of each.”
Please note I don’t endorse this webinar or ESI International per se, but wanted to share this as a helpful resource for the pmStudent.com community. Please leave some comments to let others know what you thought of the webinar. Thanks!
