TOPIC: Certified PMP since 2013

I camped overnight on the campus of a city University back then, though I wasn't a student. It was 'do or die'. I had to pass that particular diet because PMBOK was about to change and the work load set to increase. I had to escape that. I'd studied Rita's and a couple others, 'Crosswind' and 'PM for Dummies' plus some practice test simulators. I also had a study partner. On the morning of D-Day, I drove 10KM to the test center, tense and anxious. I collapsed with relief after a brief, nervous wait for the result. I passed at first attempt.
I'd since then relied on OSP's Podcasts for trendy project management knowledge and to make up my PDU needs. Kudos to Cornelius Fitchner.

Congrats on your long career as a certified PM!
