Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) Exam Cert Guide is a comprehensive exam study guide. Author and expert instructor, Carl Pritchard, shares preparation hints and test-taking tips, helping you identify areas of weakness and improve both your conceptual knowledge and hands-on skills. Material is presented in a concise manner, focusing on increasing your understanding and retention of exam topics.

The PMI-RMP is the premier certification for project managers with a risk orientation or risk managers working extensively on projects. It is industry neutral, but Agile areas of the exam do lend themselves to those in the information technology community. The exam serves as a means to show a clear grasp of risk management practice in a project management context. As organizations seek to mature in project management, risk management becomes a logical next step in ensuring that projects are completed without putting individuals and organizations in danger. Risk management’s positive orientation opportunity is also a focus for true professionals seeking to optimize individual and organizational performance and outcomes. I wrote this book to be something you can study from for the exam and keep on your bookshelf for later use as a risk resource.

The book presents you with an organized test preparation routine through the use of proven series elements and techniques. Exam topic lists make referencing easy. Chapter-ending Exam Preparation Tasks help you drill on key concepts you must know thoroughly. Review questions help you assess your knowledge, and a final preparation chapter guides you through tools and resources to help you craft your final study plan.

The companion website contains the powerful Pearson Test Prep practice test software, complete with hundreds of exam-realistic questions. The assessment engine offers you a wealth of customization options and reporting features, laying out a complete assessment of your knowledge to help you focus your study where it is needed most.

Well regarded for its level of detail, assessment features, and challenging review questions and exercises, this study guide helps you master the concepts and techniques that will enable you to succeed on the exam the first time.

This book will prepare you for the PMI-RMP examination, enabling you to:

Learn the different roles in an effective project risk management organization
Understand the different risk practices in waterfall, hybrid, and Agile organizations

Who Should Read This Book?
This book is for anyone who wants to advance a career in project management, and more specifically, project risk management. Readers of this book can range from persons who have been project managers for years who are now ready to take the next step in building up the risk aspect of their career, to those who are just entering project management but want to be a specialist in risk before becoming a generalist as a project manager. This book is also designed for people who see risk management as the future. As more and more organizations identify their risk practices as inadequate, individuals who can prove themselves to be true specialists in the field of risk command a premium. Because the book is focused on Project Management Institute practices, it ties in with the other PMI certifications, particularly the Project Management Professional certification.
