PMP!!
Somethings that everyone (even google) can tell you isn't going to be a part of this blog. Here, i plan to list every finding, every blog, every detail which i looked upon and used as a part of my journey. I am still in this journey and as i compose this piece, i am looking to attempt certification in less than 20 days from now.
I am nervous as hell but i am preparing. Its a game of nerves, if you have relevant years of exp and if you are ready to put in 2 hours every day, you can try and attempt it in 45 days. The regularity seems more important than the remembering part of the approach. This how i planned it out, i will share more details in some other posts.
1. Started by reading PMBOK (older version) - Boring as hell, too much theory etc etc, but as i went past first few chapters, i started liking it. Before i knew, i was done with it. The best i could think is that i started relating everything in the book to whether we do it or we dont and if we do it, how we do it, and if we dont, how can we do it!!.
2. Found out good and cheap online PDU/Classroom coaching which also provided me with necessary PDUs. Udemy, Coursera, eDX, Simplilearn etc are some of the platforms that provide us with these. They are not only elaborate, but are very helpful with some real world examples.
3. Completed my entire curriculum on PMBOK, Online classroom and started writing tests. Took two approaches, first one was taking up tests at the end of each chapter, this helped me in completing and closing the learning from the chapters and second is taking up full set of tests (200 Questions).
I am yet to attempt full blown tests!!
More once i get there.
