Looking into the PMP designation since I have the required hours for experience (providing the allow for past experience to count). For those of you who have done it, I've hear that the course is required and also that the test can be challenged.
Any insight, as well as recommended test prep books/reading material, would be appreciated.
Course is required (some type of education related to PM), exam is normal but the process at the exam is like being treated by "gestappo" police, nothing on you, must wear ear protection, cant turn, when entering u r being filmed showing empty pockets etc. It is long exam but once you prep for it, it is doable. There is book by Rita (prep book) that I used and it is very good. You have to take mockup exam and focus on areas that you have issue. Lots of if it is project common sense, rest, is related to theory from PMBOK. Took course at mount Royal University as I was short on my educational requirements, course is not bad and good place to learn abot exam approach and maybe study groups. Good luck
