PMP(R) Certification Preparation and Prioritizing Your Time.
PMP® Certification Training with Exam Prep

How to prioritize your time to take the PMP Exam? Update 1-2-2021.

It is always best to come to class with a PMP Exam Goal. You can always adjust this goal once you are in training. If you are pre-approved to take the Exam you might want to take it within 15 to 30 days or less, depending on your current level of knowledge. If you are not preapproved for the PMP Exam, submit your application on the last day of training. It is very easy now. There are pull down menus and they are intelligent so your answers will determine the next question they ask you. You should get PMI Exam approval within 3 to 5 days after submission. 2 % of people may be audited. If this happens and you should work quickly to provide what they have asked for, so you can clear audit within 7 to 10 days.

Remember, the shorter time you give yourself to take the Exam the more effort you need to give preparation for the Exam in the classroom or after each day of class. Make every moment count. If you decide you have too many gaps in your experience, reset your goal based upon what you have determined you need, in order to feel comfortable with all of the materials.

Avoiding Life's Pitfalls: The best way to avoid life's pitfalls is to get the Exam out of the way as quickly as you can. Once you are interrupted and you are no longer Exam-focused it is difficult to get on track again. Some people take lots of time to study, then let life get in their way. It is all important stuff of course, like a new job, new large projects that sap the time and energy, a broken relationship, a lost job, a death or illness in the family. However, once life happens, and it certainly takes time to adjust, try not to totally shelve the PMP Exam.

You can keep your head into the Exam a little at a time. At SmartPath LLC we have workflows and exercises, check lists and tools that make this easy. While sipping some coffee, notice one process or sequence so you can visualize what it's all about, for example. Notice the tools and techniques that can be used. And think about it for a few days. Then when you are in a better place, you will find that it will not take you so much work to prepare yourself.

Look at Workflows 1 to 15 when you are in a waiting line, sipping coffee or tea, etc.

Set yourself a new goal. Without a goal human beings often keep procrastinating. That's normal. Set a new goal and rearrange your life to meet it.

Practice what you learned in class at work. This will re-enforce your knowledge. Teaching others on your team will also help you. It has been shown that people retain over 90% of what they teach.

Re-sit in class if necessary: At SmartPath LLC you can train for up to 12 months if you're taking a new original full PMP Certification class or until PMI changes the materials again, whichever is first, (4 or 5 Day Boot Camp), (check the details of the class program you purchased) by re-sitting a class via Live Video Conference (Live Online), even before you take the PMP Exam. See your guarantees for all details. You don't receive new materials when you re-sit the training, neither do you receive the free quiz quiz learning again. New training, means a new PMI(R) Authorized PMP(R) Exam Prep content, and new SmartPath LLC supplemental material.

Loyalty Refreshers for those whose re-sitting has expired are always available; URL for retraining. Note the Transition price is for V6 Trainees only and it must piggy back a purchase by someone else. See details.
