Hello John -

PMI is following an ANSI-accredited policy that guides the development and revision of The Standard for Project Management. We can share that the content is in final draft and that we are engaging with the last group of stakeholders as part of our efforts to ensure all voices are heard. While we are still planning for a 2021 release, we are unable to provide a specific date until we complete the ANSI approval phase.

As soon as we have a final date for the publication of the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition, we will announce this in all of our normal communication channels. Until then, we will continue to provide updates and links to helpful resources and informational sessions through our dedicated web page: https://pmi.org/standards-projects

Well, I’m a stakeholder and have not seen a draft. Meanwhile, people are being tested on something they cannot study. Please explain the delay, and which “stakeholders” are holding up the final approval. Certainly a deadline would be appropriate, after which approval is assumed.

The news PMP exam is not based off on the PMBOK guide 7th edition. There are list of resources recommended by PMI in the PMP guide.
