Over the coming weeks here at Project Management Success we’re going to be running a series called ‘PMBOK Explained’.
This will be an introduction to PMBOK for the uninitiated! A high level overview of what PMBOK is all about.

Now to get started – PMBOK is a Project Management methodology. The acronym stands for the Project Management Body of Knowledge. Developed by the Project Management Institute (world’s largest recognized Project Management professional organization) it has really become the gold standard for Project Management guidelines, rules and characteristics for project management.

The PMBOK Explained! series will not make you a project managment expert but it’ll give you an idea of what it’s all about – enough of an idea to see if following up with PMBOK and possibly gaining certification as a Project Management Professional (PMP) is something that you’d like to follow up with. And of course if you do choose to go down the PMP exam route then we do have resources we can recommend to you for preparing for your PMP exam, including PM PrepCast (awesome video and audio package with practice questions and online forum) and load of different study guides, flash cards and all sorts!
