I studied specific Agile frameworks and tried to relate that studying to my experience. I had written up what I did a couple of days ago and I just released my 4 tips for passing the PMI-ACP today on my website: https://agile-mercurial.com/2018/08/01/4-t...e-pmi-acp-exam/

1. Study Specific Agile Approaches
2. Gain Meaningful and Accurate Experience
3. Become a PMI Member
4. Study PMI-ACP Specific Material
Joshua, thanks for putting those tips. I liked the honest opinion on certifications, and the advise.

You mentioned '5 certification tests within a 3 month period' that's remarkable.

Best!!

4 of the 5 were Agile... the 5th was Lean Six Sigma. So in reality, it was a 3-month session of studying Agile with some tests.

I could probably say I have 6 in 3 months. I passed the Optum Scrum Master exam related to OSAM (Optum Scaled Agile Methodology) during that time, but there is no way to verify that as far as I know outside of my current and soon (about a week) to be ex-employer.
