पुढे काय?
मी सल्ला करेन की तुम्ही PMI membership घेउन सुरुवात करा आणि तुमच्या जवळच्या PMI Chapter. उदाहरनार्थ जर तुम्ही मुम्बई मध्ये स्थायिक असाल तर तुम्ही PMI ची membership घ्या आणि नंतर PMI Mumbai Chapter मध्ये membership घेऊ शकता. ते म्हणतात ना, Show me a man's companions, and I will tell you what the man is. Project Manager बनायला अजुन काय चांगला पर्याय असेल ह्यापेक्षा.
ह्याचे खुपसारे फायदे आहेत जसे, PMI member असल्यामुले तुम्हाला परीक्षांच्या fees मध्ये discount मिलायला सुरुवात होते आणि online साहित्य आणि PMI online communities of practice चा access पण मिळतो. Mumbai सारखे Local chapters, members ना libraries and mentor programmes असे resources उपलब्ध करून देतात.
जर तुम्ही ३५ तासांची project management training आधीच्या अभ्यासक्रमात नसेल घेतली तर तुम्ही कुठल्याही PMI registered education देणारयांकडून, ३५ तासांची project management education (वर सांगितल्याप्रमाणे PMI च्या परिक्षेसाठी मान्यता मिळवन्यासाठी गरजेचे आहे). काही स्थानिक chapters जसे PMI mumbai chapter हीच training त्यांच्या members ना discounted मुल्यांमध्ये देतात. माझ्या माहितीप्रमाणे PMI REP fees १०,००० ते १५,००० च्या दरम्यान असते.
PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge), हा फक्त ४ दिवसांचा training programme आहे आणि जास्त समजुन घेण्यासाठी, मी सल्ला देइन की तुम्ही PMBOK चा अभ्यास हा programme attend करायच्या आधीच करून घ्या.
PMBOK च्या व्यतिरिक्त मी सल्ला करेन की तुम्ही

How to become a certified PMP!


This post is taken from the diary of Mr. Manish A. Nihal.

What is PMP?
PMP is a globally recognized project management certification from the Project Management institute. There are around 30,000 certified PMPs in India and the market demand is for more!. It is the highest paying certificate in the technological industry today.
Check Highest Paying Certification and Project Management Professional PMP Salary.

Eligibility
To apply for the PMP, you need to have either:
  • A four-year degree (bachelor’s or the global equivalent) and at least three years of project management experience, with 4,500 hours leading and directing projects and 35 hours of project management education.

  • OR

  • A secondary diploma (high school or the global equivalent) with at least five years of project management experience, with 7,500 hours leading and directing projects and 35 hours of project management education.
Please see Project Management Professional PMP

What Next?
I recommend that you start by taking the membership of PMI and your local PMI Chapter. For instance if you are based out of Mumbai you can take the membership of PMI and then the membership of the PMI Mumbai Chapter. As the proverb goes Show me a man's companions, and I will tell you what the man is. What better way to start your journey to become a project manager than by getting into the company of some!
The benefits are manifold, you start by getting a discount in the exam fees as PMI members, you also get access to online resources and PMI online communities of practice. Local chapters like Mumbai also provide resources like libraries and mentor programmes to its members.
In case you have not had 35 hours of project management training in your formal education you can take the 35 hours of project management education (one of the mandatory requirements for taking the PMI exam see Eligibility above) from any PMI Registered Education provider. Some local chapters like the PMI Mumbai Chapter provide this training to its members at a discounted rate. The fees for this programme from a PMI REP varies from INR 10,000/- to INR 15,000/- to the best of my knowledge.
Since this is only a 4 day training programme where you are introduced to the PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge) I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the PMBOK before attending the training programme to make the most of it.
Apart from the PMBOK I strongly recommend that you also go through
  1. The PMP Exam: How to Pass on Your First Try, Fourth Edition by Andy Crowe
  2. PMP Exam Prep, Seventh Edition: by Rita Mulcahy
Currently the PMP test is based on the 4th edition of PMBOK.

Applying for the exam
The last hour of the above training by REPs usually covers how to fill the application form for the PMP exam. Some of the applications are randomly picked up for audit, in which case you have to submit hard copies of the application form signed by the references.
The test is online and held at select prometric centres.

Other
There are many groups online that you may join to help you prepare better.
Best of luck with your PMP preparations.
