For example only
"Staff release plan" was mentioned in ProjectAcademy and this is not correct.
There is " staffing management plan " was mentioned even in PMBOK 5th Ed.
Thanks and regards,
Mansour

I cannot speak on behalf of PMI regarding the monitoring of R.E.P.

As for your example, I would say that a staff release plan is one part of your staffing management plan.

Hi Mansour,

that is exactly the reason why PMP aspirants should only rely on serious and high-quality sources. Well, most of the time such sources need an investment, but you may imgaine in the end it will pay off.

Just my 2 cents ...

You can find bad apples every basket, and PMI REP is not exception. Students need to check the background of these REPs and be vigilant about it.
For starters, never go to REPs who give money back guarantee or 100% pass promises.
PMP is an exam which require slot of hard work and little bit of experience to prepare and and get through.
Remember, there are no short cuts!!!!!!!!!!!

You are correct, I have seen some horrible material out there that is intended to prepare you for certification. Unfortunately, PMI cannot police these and it is up to you to make the correct choices.

You would find that all reputable sites clearly indicate that the student should not rely on the outcome as an indication of readiness to pass the exam. It is just indicative of where you might want to focus more effort.

Reliable Practice Tests I believe an online simulator is very important for passing the exam. One should start the exam prep with some reliable free tests but ultimately the final practice should be done on a paid simulator. I have written an article that describes 13 Reasons to Invest in a Paid PMP Practice Exam . It tells why paid tests are important for successfully passing the exam. I have also written an article that describes a method to check if you are ready for the exam - PMP Exam Passing Score. As per the article, practicing questions from a popular paid simulator is must for checking your readiness for the exam. After reading these articles, you would realize that an online simulator is essential for PMP exam prep. So, one must choose it well. Best PMP Exam Simulator I have written an article that does a detailed review & comparison of 5 popular PMP exam simulators. The review and comparison of simulators is done using 7 measurable parameters. The article rates simulators on a 5 point scale based on these parameters. I have rated the the simulators after doing a careful & dispassionate review. I have stated my reasons for giving the said ratings. You can read the article to find the Best PMP Exam Simulator Good luck.
