Keith Farndale and his colleagues at Procept Associates Ltd. use this booklet in their PMP® preparation courses which they offer at ten universities across North America. It is believed that their courses (and this booklet) have helped prepare more people for the PMP® exam in Canada than anyone else.

The Project Management Professional (PMP®) Certification Examination measures the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques that are utilized in the practice of project management. The PMP® Certification is the most recognized credential among project management professionals.

The 96 page booklet describes the PMP® and CAPM® examination and the examination process. It also suggests a study process, lists the topics that are likely to be tested, and provides some sources for reading materials. The guide to the study topics, the reading list matrix and the 250-question practice exam are organized according to the nine knowledge areas of A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide). Questions on the area of Professional Responsibility are included.

Exam writers claim that the content of this practice test is similar to the content tested on the actual PMP® exam, except that this practice exam is somewhat more difficult, which makes it better preparation for the real exam.

"I passed the PMP® exam thanks in part to your PMP® Preparation Guide. It helped me to focus my studying on the areas where I was weak. It also helped build up my confidence by pointing out the areas where I was strong. The Guide's preamble went a long way in helping to demystify the exam process and I felt your practice questions closely matched the degree of difficulty of the real exam." Alex Borg PMP, Bell Canada.

"Your test is a great predictor of outcome . I scored the same on your test as the exam." Judy Adler PMP, Manager of Software Engineering, Masstech Group Inc.

"I found Farndale's PMP and CAPM Preparation Guide to be a particularly good resource because its sample questions were quite similar to those on the actual exam. A fine booklet." Gary Wilde, PEng, PMP.

"I passed the exam with an 81% and I believe that I owe part of that to the Farndale exam. It was by far the best prep that I came across while I was studying. The day before I was scheduled to write the exam, I wrote it as a final study tool and scored a 71%. After reviewing the answers I stopped studying. This prep exam was "most-like" the real thing." Danielle Blaze, Royal Bank

"I found your test questions to be the closest to the questions in the exam. Your course is very much in synch with the examination, thus tremendously valuable." Michael Bica, Ph. D. PMP, Sogard Inc.
