I'd seen the demo a few weeks back, but in the interim, a LOT of new content has been added.
I've had the opportunity to contribute a couple of content pieces for the platform - hopefully they will be published soon!
If you haven't visited it yet, you owe it to yourself to take a look at this new online knowledge base which will be containing a lot of the process/tools details which used to be in the PMBOK Guide.
Like the PMBOK 7, I feel PMI is moving to IT/Agile forgetting other project management concepts such as LEAN or other industries.
It may create a schism/split Industries that don't feel include may push forward their way if PMI doesn't include them!
Articles are identified "Agile" when they should also have "Waterfall" and "Hybrid"
Example search for "Construction" and "Risk" you get two articles
Top Risks in an Agile Project: Insights from Three Industry Experts
and
Cost-Benefits Analysis Case Study
Add to your search "Waterfall" you get 0 ZERO article
I can understand the first no showing, but the second should be there but it is not tag "Waterfall" or "Agile" or "Hybrid" so it will not show if you check one of the three.
It still needs to be worked on!

this is a great set of observations! I'd suggest submitting the concerns to PMI directly via the "Don't see the results you are looking for?" feedback field at the very bottom of the search page. If you want to get to that field quickly, just search for Waterfall + Aerospace :-)

The filter is particularly useful! How do you get to the site, Kiron? (I noticed it doesn't have the nine dots in the upper left corner.)

As it is still an MVP, I believe PMI isn't pushing it heavily through its usual online channels. Once it is, I'd expect it to be easily accessible through the nine dots menu.
Till then, I have it bookmarked and just visit in once in a while to see what's been added.

I understand it is still work in progress. Do you know who we should contact to suggest changes?
I push a bit further the search for a single criteria Approach

Vincent, thank you for raising that. Last year I moved from IT to a product development & strategic projects, then I realized how far PMI was to integrate other industries.

I have also been working with the beta team on this. Supplied some content as well, though, not yet published. Maybe it won’t even be published, but the hope is there :)
My take on some comments above is that the tagging still is being finalized. To simplify and focus beta testing tags were extended across to ensure enough content available irrespective for area; also allowed for testing of filter results.
Anyway, Definitely agree. It is a great initiative and great to see the expanded footprint.

Hey, I'm always part of this things...as "PM Edge" that we crossed our paths "virtually", this time I wasn't aware..
"When one door closes another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the ones which open for us."
