How does the release of the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition impact the Project Management Professional (PMP®) certification exam?
Main Reference Material to Prepare for PMP Exam
The PMBOK® Guide is an input to preparing for the PMP® exam – and is listed as a reference – but it is not a test-preparation tool. The new PMP® exam, which launched 2 January 2021, will continue to use the PMBOK® Guide – Sixth Edition as one of several references. The new exam has been planned for some time and is not related to the release of the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition.
We strongly recommend that candidates refer to the current Exam Content Outline for up-to date information about preparing for certifications.
