Welcome, Warriors! This is the home base for passing the PMP, and for keeping it after you pass. Start here: 1. Take PMP Practice Quiz 1 and 2 in the Classroom (free). 2. Post your exam date or biggest question in the feed. 3. Live sessions are on the Calendar. Already passed? You need 60 PDUs every 3 years to renew.

From Friday's PMP Study Hall Live: A new regulation is coming that affects your project. Ignore it? Change scope? Escalate? None of those first. - Step 1: Assess. What does it change, and how big is the impact? - Step 2: Then act. Update the plan, run a change request, or escalate if it's beyond your authority. When an answer says "assess," "analyze," or "review" first, it's usually the PMI answer. Which "act fast" answer has cost you points on a practice test?

Your agile team just finished an iteration. In the retrospective, nobody says much. Everyone looks at you. What should you do? A. List what went wrong and assign fixes yourself B. Skip retros until the team is more comfortable C. Ask open questions and let the team find what went well, what didn't, and what to change D. Escalate the low engagement to the sponsor Drop your letter in the comments. Answer: C - The retro belongs to the team. You facilitate. You don't dictate. - A is command and control. PMI wants a servant leader. - B throws away the team's main way to improve. - D escalates something you can handle at your level. Army folks: it's an After Action Review. What went right, what went wrong, what we change next time.

Last night I was honored to help UT staff revamp their plans for their project management course. They stopped offering it but now will start it back up in the spring. This is a great opportunity if you like in person training. The format will be different than I currently offer online in my live virtual class. The UT class will most likely be 2 different cohorts- Fridays for one cohort and Tue/Thu for the other. I'll be one of 3 instructors in that course. 30 million more project managers are needed in the next 10 years. Whether you get it online with me or in person at UT, you've got a wide-open career field waiting for you.
