Description

The CompTIA Project+ exam is designed for IT professionals who want to improve their career trajectory by gaining certification in project management specific to their industry. This guide covers everything necessary to pass the current iteration of the Project+ PK0-004 exam. The CompTIA Project+ Certification Guide starts by covering project initiation best practices, including an understanding of organizational structures, team roles, and responsibilities. You’ll then study best practices for developing a project charter and the scope of work to produce deliverables necessary to obtain formal approval of the end result. The ability to monitor your project work and make changes as necessary to bring performance back in line with the plan is the difference between a successful and unsuccessful project. The concluding chapters of the book provide best practices to help keep an eye on your projects and close them out successfully. The guide also includes practice questions created to mirror the exam experience and help solidify your understanding of core project management concepts. By the end of this book, you will be able to develop creative solutions for complex issues faced in project management.

Very easy to understand and the author makes difficult and dry content fun and easy to understand. Passed my exam easily. I received the book through a training program and used it to study for my exam.

Passed the Project+ Certification exam today and I primarily used this book to study. Although the content can be dull, Ashley Hunt presents the topics in a personable way that makes it easier to read and remember. I am a heavy annotator that likes to engage with the reading material and I remember writing "lol" next to a couple things that were funny (the book can be very entertaining at times). However this wasn't the only resource I used, I also completed a lot of practice questions (including the ones in the book) and watched a couple videos to re-enforce learned concepts. I most definitely recommend this study guide to get your base knowledge in for sure!

Very good for preparing for my CompTIA project+ test. I used several other books and references to prepare.

I enjoyed the author of this book, she was humorous and her study hints helped me remember the material. I used this book to take the new Project+ Beta exam (not sure if I passed because the results will not be released until Oct 22). The beta exam was different from the book BUT the book was still very helpful study-wise and career-wise.
