Literature for the ACP Exam, free book reviews
You are in the process of studying for the ACP Exam?
Then you need some good sources for getting ready for the Exam. Besides the fact that you have to collect the 21 hours for the preparation, you should buy one or two books, so that you get the same information or even more information from a different point of view.
One criterion for a good book should be a test simulation or at least a lot of sample questions, to get a feeling what you will see in the exam later.
For the PMP, the first address is always the Pmbok, but with the ACP you won't find a PMI Pmbok, so you have to look for books you like.
So here comes some help. The PMI IS CoP, the PMI Communities of Practice started an initiative to distribute interesting Literature in relation to any PMI topic. For more details please visit their homepage: PMI IS CoP
At the moment they have more than 150 book reviews and yes, there are book reviews for three books about the ACP Exam preparation.
My friend Frédéric gave me the okay to share the links with you. So below you will find the link to three book reviews as a pdf file.
I hope this will help you a bit.
