    Hi All,

    Well, I've started studying for the Project+ 2009 beta exam now to be ready for Friday the 2nd of Oct (when my exam is).

    So far I've started the CBTNuggets Project+ (for the previous version) and trying to find a previous PMBok guide I downloaded years ago (at least I think I downloaded it as the latest version are only given to current PMI members).

    Got mine on 5th Oct. Likewise with the nuggets and anything else I cna get my hands on that seems relevant.

    Lecturer at Uni suggested a BCS book ??? Trying to get details

    Hmmn, think the book he was referring to may have been this one but having looked at the summary I'm not so sure it's relevant.

    The same could probably be said for the ISEB books as they will be aimed at their exams (and same for APM and PRINCE2) so I suppose we're a little in the dark with this one :ohmy

    Ken - check the Books 24/7 on BCS Member area. If you search on "project" I think you'll find what you're looking for - A Guide to the Project Management Body Of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide), Fourth Edition

    Thanks mate, however don't think I will have time... I've only just finished the CBTNuggets for Project+ (the previous version) and will be looking at The CompTIA Project+ Glossary of Standard Project Management Terms.

    If I have time, then I'll take a look at the PMBOK guide. I kinda wish that I didn't study for the Windows 7 exams I took last Friday, 1 week is not enough to take in all that info, even with experience in my opinion.

    Thanks :)

    Just logged onto Books24x7 and if I had a cup of coffee I would have spat it out. There's no way I can cram 496 pages of PMBOK in one night or 512 pages of the Sybex Project+ book :eek:

    However if I had another week I might have been ok, oh well, lets just see if what I already learnt is enough... Not enough time...
