Due to the surge in the popularity and demand for project management skills worldwide, the project management certification preparation has been a fast growing industry. The PMP certification by PMI and the Project+ certification by CompTIA are the most popular certifications today, and have been gaining a growing and widening industry support. CompTIA Project+ In Depth is a cohesive, comprehensive book on the topics covered by the CompTIA Project+ exam. With sharp focus on the exam objectives, it goes beyond a simple exam cram. No prior knowledge of project management is assumed. The material is presented in a logical learning sequence: each section builds upon previous sections and each chapter on previous chapters. All concepts, simple and complex, are defined and thoroughly explained when they appear the first time. As a result, this book serves as more than a guide for passing the Project+ exam--it will also serve as an essential long-term reference.
