The Essentials of Project Management Certification

There's a secret playbook for running literally any project, and it's called the PMBOK.

This is the guide for the PMP, or Project Management Professional certification. Think of any project,

from building a skyscraper to launching an app. It all breaks down into five simple

phases: kicking it off, planning everything out, doing the actual

work, keeping an eye on progress, and finally, closing it all down.

You juggle things like scope, schedule, and budget to make sure it all gets

done right. To get certified, you have to pass a massive 4-hour, 200-question exam.
