Abstract:
While we created this podcast for an earlier version of the Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBoK), the concepts and all of the content are still valid for the PMBoK fifth edition.

Each company can use a variety of techniques to select which projects will see the light of day. This month’s PMP Study call focuses on the project selection techniques as laid out in the PMBoK. Dana Safford, PMP, will provide insight and practical examples of everything you need to know to building your critical knowledge mass and pass the PMP exam on the first attempt.

If you're studying for the PMP Exam, you may want to listen to the MP3s of past PMP Exam Study Group conference calls. They're located in our Archive (see the link on our website).

PRESENTATION:
One of the aspects of networking that I learned to appreciate is the incredible knowledge of others and how willing they are to help if only asked. Most conference calls the conversation center around 2-3 individuals. When I review the call log I find 20 people who prefer to listen and learn. Tonight is an open forum to ask those on the call about their experiences with the job search. What is working and what has not. Talking to others that are sharing similar issues will stimulate the discovery of new questions, new possibilities and may guide you towards the next steps in your job search. It has helped me to resolve problems, plan next steps, and invigorate my thought process. Think of this as high powered brain storming. The sum of the many is greater then the one. It is questions that have the most power to open doors and your mind to fresh thinking, new possibilities, and innovative solutions.
