PgMP® Exam Practice Test and Study Guide, Fourth Edition is the book you need to pass the Program Management Professional (PgMP®) exam the first time around.

It includes a list of the major topics covered on the exam organized by the five performance domains--strategic program management, program life cycle, benefits management, stakeholder management, and governance--as presented in the Program Management Professional Examination Content Outline. It also includes helpful tips on how to make the most of the time you have available to prepare for the exam. Just like its bestselling predecessors, this indispensable study guide includes 20 multiple-choice practice questions for each domain along with a comprehensive answer key. The program life cycle domain includes 20 questions for each of the five phases. Each question also has a plainly written rationale for each correct answer with bibliographic references for further study. Two challenging, 170-question practice tests that simulate the actual exam are included in the book and online, so you can retake them as many times as necessary. They also include a rationale and reference. Scores for the online tests are presented as if each question is rated similarly, but this edition also includes a new component: the authors' own weighting system for the level of difficulty for each question. This system will show you what they feel meets the exam's criteria for Proficient, Moderately Proficient, and below Proficient. You then will see your scores by domain in both approaches. Supplying an insider's look at the questions, terminology, and sentence construction you will encounter on the day of the exam, this indispensable study tool is designed to help you pass the exam and achieve the highly sought after PgMP® certification.

Deliver “Exceptional Business Value” aligned to “Organizational Strategy” through structured program management and stand out from the crowd by attaining the elite PgMP credential Programs are vehicles for organizations to realize their strategic objectives and goals. As the industry shifts from just delivery of projects and programs to a more value-driven and benefits-oriented model, program management acts as a key piece in the puzzle that allows organizations to extract the most business value & benefits from a group of related initiatives that are managed as one program. The biggest reason why strategic programs fail is due to the strategy execution gap, where the people executing the strategy don’t understand “Why” we are doing this or “Where” we are going with this. The Program Manager is a key role that bridges this strategy execution gap, who leads the program towards success by keeping the team focused on the end goals that are aligned to the organizational strategy and direction. This book will help you: • Understand the program management performance domains as per the Standard for Program Management by PMI • Overcome commonly faced challenges as a program manager, and successfully deliver benefits and business value • Support your organization’s pursuit of strategic objectives and goals through effective program management • Understand the PgMP exam syllabus & contents easily, with pictures, charts, and examples to aid learning • Submit the PgMP Application as well as prepare for the PgMP exam • Learn Tips & Tricks that will help you take the PgMP exam with confidence The demand for competent program managers who can help organizations achieve their strategic objectives is growing, and holding the PMI-PgMP credential helps you demonstrate strong subject matter knowledge & expertise in this area and become an invaluable asset to any organization.

This book will help you: - Assess your readiness for the PgMP Exam - Test your understanding of the Program Management concepts that would be tested in the PgMP Exam - Practice with 400+ sample questions that vary in length, complexity, and topics to prepare you for the PgMP Exam - Review the key points you should remember from an exam perspective
