July 31, at PM. Hi I am Naveen Kumar,completed B. I'm very much interested about doing PMP certification course. But can you please suggest me how can it will help to my career. Hello Naveen, I put the question back to you. What makes you very interested in PMP?
I may be able to advise further based on your response. Best regards. October 28, at PM. It should be the same password as the one for your PMI account at the time you downloaded it. If you still have PMI membership, then you can reset your account password, log in, and download the guide again.
Another option is to write to PMI customer care and seek help from them. April 10, at AM. Hello Shalini, The link that you clicked was still pointing to the 5th edition. Try it again and it should work now. Thanks for reporting it. So what you see is correct. April 19, at AM. Will this be an actual PDF that I can open from any device, markup, add comments etc?
Or is it like a web version? Also, do i get to keep it even if I cancel my PMI membership after a year? August 27, at PM. I know it is not for distribution and will not do so but why should a member study from this free material that has bookmarks all over it? The document is already password protected so why spoil a learners study guide by adding so many bookmarks. Natasha, I completely understand your frustration. It is super annoying and directly interferes with the readability, and even more so for those using the guide to prepare for PMP or CAPM.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. September 01, at AM. Infact the only option I have is to purchase the book. Can you help share the pdf? Thanks, Prateek. Well in that case you should contact PMI customer care and get the issue resolved, and not look for someone to share a copy with you something that would be illegal. March 09, at PM. Will I be able to access updates as well? Or do I have to keep my membership active in order to have continuous access?
Good question, Karen. March 14, at AM. April 30, at PM. Thanks you very much for your kindness. Best Regard M. October 06, at PM. October 07, at AM. October 07, at PM. Look for the link in the post above.
