Introduction

In 2019, just a little more than a year after releasing The PMBOK Guide – A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge Sixth Edition, PMI announced that the focus of the PMP Examination questions would change December 15, 2019. In late August 2019, they announced that the focus of PMP Examination questions would not be changed until July, 2020. The reason stated was that several education providers and chapters needed more time to prepare and update their publications. The PMBOK Guide Sixth Edition added four additional sections to each Knowledge Area: Key Concepts, Trends and Emerging Practices, Tailoring Considerations, and Considerations for Agile/Adaptive Environments.

Dr. Ginger Levin, the holder of the second certification in Program Management, died in late 2018. She had served the project management community for more than 50 years. This examination preparation book of questions is still relevant at least until June 2020.
