These questions are referenced from CAPM Live Lessons - Guaranteed Pass, CAPM 23 Contact Hours and the book, I Want To Be A CAPM. Do note that these questions are not directly from the CAPM exam, but based on my understanding and feedback from successful CAPMs.
To answer these questions, you need to have:
- Good grasp on Knowledge Areas of the PMBOK Guide, 6th edition.
- Good grasp of the introductory areas of the PMBOK guide such as Project Life Cycles, Project Environment and Role of Project Manager.
- Sound understaning of the Agile practices as per the PMBOK guide.
- Understanding the content of the ECO. The ECO is a small, barebone document listing the possible (not all) topics to be covered for the CAPM exam.
This is the first of the series with 20 questions. The next part has another set of 20 questions.
I hope you enjoy doing these questions and it helps in your preparation for the PMI-CAPM exam.
