I just passed my PMI-ACP Certification Exam (Here’s how YOU can too!)

1) I just passed my PMI-ACP Certification Exam

(Agile Certified Practitioner)

The PMI-ACP is like the PMP For Agile.

It will look good on your resume. And studying for it is a great way to learn a lot about the latest-and-greatest Agile tools.

2) Which Agile disciplines is the PMI-ACP based on?

The ACP is based mainly on 4 of the most popular Agile flavors:

Scrum
Lean
XP (eXtreme Programming)
KanBan

3) What study resources did I use?

I studied from the following resources:

a) The PMI-ACP Exam Simulator, from OSP International

(same company as the PMP-Exam Simulator)

Like the PMP Exam, it is highly-recommended to practice with a Simulator as part of your ACP test prep.

This tool helped me a lot in my final prep before my ACP test.

The list price is $99, but here is a Gift Code for $10 off (making it $89)

b) The Agile Prepcast from OSP International

This is an excellent and very robust podcast/video course, led by PM expert Cornelius Fichtner, PMP, CSM, President of OSP International, and host of “The Project Management Podcast.”

This course also satisfies PMI’s pre-req of 21 education hours on Agile to pre-qualify for the test.
