Course Overview
[Autogenerated] Hi, everyone. My name is Casey Years and welcome to my course Project Integration Management. This course is the third in our newly updated Siri's, helping you prepare for the latest version of the PNP exam, which is based on the sixth edition of the Project Management Body of Knowledge, better known as the Pym Baht Guide. By completing this course and others in our PMP prep Siri's, you'll not only be better prepared to ace the certification exam, but critically will also completely fulfill the mandatory training requirement that must be met before taking the exam. The PNP, or project management Professional certification, is consistently listed as one of the top five most valuable certifications for I T professionals and is also broadly applicable to a wide range of industries. Given how much new value can be created from successful projects, businesses in all sectors and of all sizes need capable project managers. Today, a PMP builds the skills needed to succeed and opens new doors for those with the certification. Some of the major topics will cover in this course include developing project charters and project management plans, directing and managing project work, managing and curating project knowledge monitoring and controlling project work, performing integrated change control and closing out projects and project phases. By the end of this course, you'll have a strong understanding of the processes that tie project work together and allow project managers to orchestrate project work in the broadest levels. You'll also be better prepared for the courses that follow in this series, which looked closely at each of the components and project management that we've through the processes will discuss here. This course and others in the Siri's cannot only help you learn more about project management and prepare for the PMP exam, but also serve as a great refresher for established project managers and as an opportunity to earn continuing education credit. I hope you'll join me on this journey to prepare for the PMP exam and learn about project integration management here at plural site
