Good Stuff

This book has meat and breaks it down so that you can get it all. A lot of people do project management and this book is a great introduction to the terms that are used in the test. For me, knowing the terms for what I already do has encouraged me to sit for the exam. I think that there are a lot of you out there who do project management and don't even know it. This book will help you formalize and tweak what you may already know.

Outstanding study and reference guide

I started reading the book as a reference tool and have actually found it very useful for the work I've been doing. I like how easy it is to follow. It condenses Project Management down into a readily available format which, for some of the things I've needed, is quite helpful. While I haven't tried all of the exercises yet, the scenarios presented are real life and easy to identify as existing in any project or organization. I also like the fact that ANSWERS get included in the workbook. I hate having to contact the instructor for the answers for questions in the text. I'd rather have them on hand for when I'm ready for them.While designed to go with the study guide, the workbook can stand alone and really brings the content into focus.Personally, I think the book works as an excellent "Quick Reference" guide as well as a workbook to study by.Overall, I like what has been done! That's why I keep it with me. I'm seeing practical application of what I've studied in the pages of the workbook and I love having the information in such a user-friendly format.
