PMP Exam Changes from November 2015

In April of 2015, PMI announced that they would use their recently completed Role Delineation Study (a document that provides an updated description of the project manager role) to make slight changes to the PMP Exam Content Outline. As with the PMI-ACP exam, the changes themselves will be VERY MINOR. The five domains of practice for the PMP exam will remain the same, but a few tasks (only 8, to be exact) within each domain have been modified, added, or removed. Again, to repeat this—the upcoming “changes” to the PMP Exam include the addition of only EIGHT NEW TASKS. And that is literally it. Anyone who does not believe this, or has heard otherwise, may visit this link:

The timeline is also very simple: the existing exam will be administered until November 1st, and on November 2nd PMI will switch to the “updated” exam.

Hello ,  I am preparing for PMP and I am in search of a study partner. StudyPal is a great platform where we can interact and share notes. It is free and highly user friendly. Most of my friends are using it effectively. Join me today. Best wishes.

The last day to test under the current version of the PMP exam is 11 January 2016. After this date, the PMP will reflect the new exam content outline. This has changed from the original date of 1 November 2015.
