If so, than the following information might be useful for you.

I have written a blog about the timeline to become a PMP this year, before the exam will change based on the upcoming new PMBoK Guide.

This blog shows a sample timeline when you should have started if you want to assure to have the option to go for all three attempts if necessary.

Please find the article here:

or alternative on LinkedIn:

The graphic is better there ... ;)

In fact, you should start right away ...

If you are searching for a proper online course (which provides also the needed 35 contact hours for the PMP exam application) then please have a look at another blog from me:

https://www.projectmanagement.com/blog-pos...Pass-First-Time

I have used this one by my own and from my perspective it is probably the best prep course available out there.

They do offer a great bundle package this month where the course is bundled with their also great simulator for a really nice discount.
You can't get more value actual!

If you are in the final zone of your preparation you might just need a good simulator to validate your knowledge and to assess your exam readiness?!

Well besides the great simulator by the PrepCast team there is another good option to go for, the simulator by PMAspire.
And they do also offer a nice discount this month; please have a look here:

And please do not hesitate to ask any further question you might have in the context of the PMP exam preparation.

Regards,

Markus

Keep in mind:
You can buy this now with this great discount but the 90 day access limitation starts counting NOT before you haven't started your frist mock exam! Cool, isn't it?
