Hi all,

Please, anyone has an English vocabulary material for Project Management? I need to align myself to start a new job here in US.

Thanks

Karlos -

You can also use the glossary at the back of the PMBOK Guide, Sixth Edition.

I find the glossary at the end of the PMBOK the best reference.

Ditto. The back of the PMBOK is great for this.

Agreed. Also to note, listening to people in the profession speak about project management will also help. Check out some podcasts, there are many really good ones out there.

Karlos,

Your best is the PMBOK you can search both the English and Portuguese version if needed.

If the Portuguese version is the same as the French, the glossary should provide you the English version, along with the Portuguese.
