Featured PMP Exam Lessons Learned from Aleksey Goryanskiy, PMP
In this lesson learned Aleksey Goryanskiy understood how a non-proficient he was as a PM even after years of the real PM and functional management had made him willing to go further enhance this profession. Here's a preview of his lessons learned.
I bought a book of Rita Mulcahy “PMP Exam Prep eighth edition” and started to read it. Then I went to a local PMBOK based course of project management. And only after that I discovered a PM PrepCast by Cornelius Fichtner and bought it accompanied with the PM Exam Simulator. These 35 contact hours plus 8 full test exam cost me twice less than 24h of local studying! I was dumb before! I found Cornelius’s speech is absolutely clear for understanding, his accent sounded fine for me and the speed of speaking made me relaxed while listening. I saw it many times when the foreigners speak English "better" than the natives.
Well, I spent one week about full time reading Rita’s book and found it very useful in terms of Integration management at least. This book contains many exercises to go through and self tests also. I came to it once again later. Then I spent one week for the local course and gave 24h of the PDU. After I found and bought Cornelius course. It took me about 3 weeks to listen through it. And I started to recover my English at the same time, hiring a tutor.
