PMP Examination Change Approaching
The new Project Management Professional (PMP)® examination will be released on 31 August 2011 as a result of the recent Role Delineation Study (RDS).
The PMP® RDS is the foundation on which this professional certification is based.
The RDS defines what project managers do, how often they do it and how important their work is. As the RDS is updated, there are resulting updates to the examination questions and process areas in the PMP examination application.
PMI strongly encouraging PMP candidates who have prepared for the current exam to schedule their exam on or before 30 August.
Delivery of Exam Results
As PMI transition to the new examination, PMI must update its examination reporting processes. This means for a short period of time examination results will not be available immediately following the examination. There will be a 4–6 week period between taking the examination and receiving the results via email.
This delay is necessary any time an exam changes to validate the new examination structure. In particular, please note the following details about the delivery of the examination results.
• Candidates who take the updated computer-based examination on or after 31 August will not receive immediate results at the Prometric testing center.
• Candidates taking the updated paper-based examination can also expect a delay in receiving their examination results.
• Once PMI validates the new examination structure (by mid-October) we will be able to resume providing individuals with immediate results at the Prometric testing center.
• Each PMP candidate will receive a communication to notify them when their results are available at PMI.org.
• All candidates can expect to receive their examination results by mid-October.
Changes to Application
In addition, for candidates who are getting ready to apply for the PMP, the application will be updated to reflect the current role of the project manager revealed in the new RDS.
• In the past, PMI has required candidates to track and report their hours of experience leading and directing projects for each task within the RDS.
• On 31 August, PMI will update the PMP application to require candidates to track and report their hours for each domain (Process Group) within the RDS.
• Any candidates who have an application in progress at the time the change is made will have their experience hours migrated to the new application, so that no data is lost
• Please refer to the PMP Handbook on PMI.org for more detailed instructions.
We are excited to transition to the new PMP examination and thank you for your continued support to the global community of project management professionals. Should you have any questions, please contact PMI Customer Care.

Updates to the Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification Exam
PMI Announce on its website theUpdates to the Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification Exam.
The Project Management Professional (PMP)® credential examination will be updated in 2011, based on updates to the professional role of a PMP® recently found in PMI’s Role Delineation Study (RDS).
These updates to the role do have an effect on the examination questions for the PMP, and will be reflected in the PMP examination starting 31 August 2011. Regular communications about this change will continue until the PMP examination change on 31 August.
How the PMP is affected?
The latest results of the RDS produced an updated description of the professional role of a PMP. The responses met the requirements for statistical relevancy and adequately reflected the profession in geography, industry and other standard demographics. We collected feedback from more than 3,000 PMP credential holders from 97 countries, representing all organizational levels.
The RDS results provide us with a blueprint for updating the credential:
■The education and experience eligibility requirements for the existing PMP examination remain appropriate and will not be changed.
■Approximately 30% of the PMP exam content will change.
■Certain examination areas will be tested in a different way. Specifically, the Professional and Social Responsibility content area (Domain 6) will now be tested in every domain, rather than as a separate domain. The RDS revealed that professional and social responsibility is integrated into all of the work of project management. Therefore, PMI’s Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct should be viewed as integrated into the day-to-day role of a project manager and important in each phase of the project lifecycle.
If you would like to know more about the process PMI used for conducting the RDS, please refer to Appendix A in the PMP Examination Content Outline.
