Getting Started

Let me introduce myself. My name is Rhett and I work for a mid-size software development company. There are 5 program/project managers within our development organization and a few other project managers spread through our training, marketing, and IT departments.

I've been working as a program manager for about the past 6 years and have considered getting my PMP cert in the past, but I've never really gotten serious about. I think the most looming part of getting started is filling out the experience audit. Studying the PMBOK is almost secondary in my mind.

A few weeks ago at work all the project managers started studying together with the intent of getting our PMPs. The content has been fairly basic so far and I'm looking forward to getting into more of the meat. After outlining the 2nd chapter of the PMBOK to use in our study group, I found it helped me formalize my study.

I figured, I may as well be sharing what I learn with others. Hopefully in return I will better remember the things I study and write about. So, as the weeks roll into months, I hope my posts will be helpful.
