PMP in Depth cover

The primary purpose of this book is to help you pass the Project Management Professional (PMP) exam administered by the Project Management Institute (PMI). Because the book has a laser-sharp focus on the exam objectives, expert project managers who want to pass the PMP exam can use this book to ensure that they do not miss any objective. Yet this is not simply an exam-cram book. The chapters and the sections within each chapter are presented in a logical learning sequence: A topic and a chapter only depend upon the previously covered topics and chapters, and there is no hopping from topic to topic. The concepts and topics, both simple and complex, are clearly explained when they appear for the first time. No prior knowledge of project management is assumed. This facilitates stepwise learning, prevents confusion, and makes this book useful for anyone who wants to get up to speed quickly to learn the fundamentals of project management, pass the PMP exam, or both, even if they are new to the discipline of project management. A fulllength practice exam with fully explained answers is also included.

1. Project Management Framework. 2. Initiating the Project. 3. Planning the Project Scope. 4. Planning Quality and Risk Management. 5. Planning the Project Schedule. 6. Executing the Project. 7. Monitoring and Controlling Projects. 8. Closing the Project. 9. Performing Professional Responsibility. Appendices: A. Answers to Chapter Review Questions. B. Final Exam Quick Prep. C. System Development Life Cycle. D. Proprietary Approaches Toward Project Management.
