Use a "PMP Prep Library" Approach to Optimize your PMP or CAPM Training

Your PMP prep project management training is much more than a series of online courses, video files, images, vocabulary lists, books, podcasts, and the like. To take control of your studies and time, you need to view your resources as a library that is completely at your disposal.  And it is up to you to be an expert user of that library as part of your total PMP® exam study plan.

Yes, taking control of your library of resources will noticeably increase your chance of passing the PMP Exam.   Here's how to do it:

1. Recognize when you need to master the theory, and in what areas.  Look at the total picture of what you need to know, and continually assess your mastery of each area.
2. Find a way to mix real-world examples – such as online training or podcasts - to help you understand the PMBOK concepts. This will help you to "take ownership" of the concepts, making you a better project manager on the way to earning your PMP certification.
3. Build your PMP prep library with a blend of resources that will maximize your study time, and improve your overall efficiency.  Utilize your "downtime" by reading a book or printouts, listening to a podcast, or maybe doing some practice questions.  Have these things available for your on-demand use.
4. Master the material in bite-sized chunks.  There are 42 processes and 9 knowledge areas, which may sound daunting, but if you cover 1 or 2 a day can get you through it all in about a month.
5. Keep your PMP prep library organized for easy retrieval.  Many sources, such as searchable online training, books, and the like, are well organized and searchable naturally.  Keep PMP prep library organized and be selective!  Knowing what you do and don't know will enable you to select the materials to retrieve from your PMP prep library.

You will shorten your study time considerably by taking the "PMP prep library" approach.  By so doing, you can recognize that you do not necessarily need to doggedly trudge through every last course, every last hour of training, or every last book.  If you have training that you know will more than fulfill your 35 contact hours requirement, you can focus on learning what you need to study without worrying about "putting in the time".  You can take control by selectively filling the gaps in your knowledge as you move closer to being ready to take the exam.
