Description:
The Project Management Institute (PMI®) Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP®) is the fastest growing certification in PMI history! The PMI-ACP® is now bigger than the PgMP®, RMP® and SP® combined! In 2 years it has achieved the same growth as 5 years for the PMP®!

It “sets the bar” for agile project management professionals! Obtaining it means that two hurdles stand in front of you – completing the application and passing the exam. Luckily this course helps you sail over those hurdles and move to the next level with solid, real world practices. Remember, after you pass the exam you must meet the raised expectations of your boss, co-workers, and customers as an agile expert!

 Pre-work entails reading 2 chapters (in PDF format), on Agile concepts and completing 2 short quizzes. The Pre-work Assignment takes 5 hours to complete.

PMI-ACP®’s are required to master and demonstrate – via a serious exam – that they know five agile frameworks (not just one). PMI-ACP®’s learn to define hybrid practices that adapt to the content and context of the project and can be scheduled and budgeted!

Students receive the ACP Exam Prep PLUS Desk Reference book with two full-length PMI-ACP® practice exams, Student Notebook of the PPT slides for easy note taking, Flashcard Deck with 150-cards, and a six-month subscription to the GR8PM Online Exam Simulator!

Who should attend:

This program is designed for any technical or project management professional seeking proven ways to pass the PMI-ACP® exam and then use Agile…successfully!
