The question format in the simulator was very similar to the exam, mostly situational.

I thought the simulator was good for preparing to sit for a 3 hour exam since it had been a while for me. Two weeks before the test I also bought the Prepcast PMI-ACP Exam Simulator.
This class was EXTREMELY helpful in understanding the world of scrum, which was prevalent on the exam. However, between the two I think that Mike Griffiths' book was definitely more useful.While preparing for the exam, my company had an internal two-day CSM certification training that I was invited to attend about two weeks before my exam date. This book was much easier to read than the aforementioned Exam Prep and did a good job of describing the roles, responsibilities, and meetings involved in all of the different agile methodologies in a more lighthearted manner. Once I had finished going through the PMI-ACP Exam Prep I read through the Head First Agile book that was recommended by my manager. This did a good job of filling in any detail gaps in the overview that I got from the Udemy course.
I read the book once through and took notes while taking the chapter tests after each section. The course was good for exposure and gaining familiarity with the terminology and fulfilled the contact hours requirement to take the exam.Īfter the Udemy course I broke out Mike Griffiths' PMI-ACP Exam Prep book. It took me about a week to get through the course, spending about an hour or two each day watching videos and taking a few notes. I started out with the Joseph Phillips Udemy course that I got on sale and threw it on 1.5x speed.
My company offered to pay for the certification and training materials, but not for retakes, so I wanted to make sure that I passed my first attempt to avoid paying for a retake. The last 8 months of that being in a hybrid agile environment. I figured I would post my experience here to pay it forward.īackground: I'm a 2019 college graduate with about 2.5 years of experience in govt consulting. I passed the PMI-ACP exam last week and used this subreddit to find study resources and strategies.
