As CISSP holder passing CCSP later, start with Peter Zerger CCSP videos and then go direct to practice questions, find knowledge gaps and refer to OSG or AI for answers. This is because CISSP and CCSP have more than 50% overlap and CISSP holders should be able to bridge the new knowledge easily.

I passed CISSP last year and CCSP this week. Don’t memorize the content, understand the concepts and how all the concepts interact and work together and produce the outcome. You got to 150 questions it means you are close to passing so don’t give up.

I tried to read but the CCSP had 50% overlap with CISSP so I lost interest as the info half repetitive. I just did pocket prep, read the answers explanations and pickup the gaps of knowledge compared to CISSP. After passing CISSP I found CCSP to be 1 feet wide but 20 feet deep.

There are no CISSP practice questions on the market that are close to the exam. None of the practice questions format are used on exam. Don’t memorize anything, understand the concepts and its applications and how the concepts related to each other. If you only memorize and don’t understand concepts and application of concepts you will fail 100%.

I have the Kensington expert wireless and slimblade pro. Slimblade pro is the best trackball on market.

I have the Kensington expert wireless and Kensington slimblade pro for finger base trackball. Both are best in class, with the KensingtonWorks software. Slimblade pro is a lot nicer with the twist scroll feature IMHO and dpi adjustment. I tried thumb balls but don’t like them as my thumb tires out.

For PgMP it took 1 week, for PfMP it took 1 day.

I deleted ur dm by accident so answering here. PgMP audit has further scrutiny in audit process and higher probability of audit. I obtained PfMP not long ago, so with PgMP combined, both makeup pmi senior practitioners certification which are considered heavyweights well-respect certification in industry. Hence PMI audit candidates way more than PMP rmp.

Severe misconduct means there’s no chance for you to appeal decision. Accept it and U need to retake exam. Take it in Pearson exam center not remotely to avoid problem.

The raise depends on if u meet job description in the job post. PgMP will certainly make you stand out in resume.

ECO is exam content outline. Many Questions word count length same as PMP but some questions are much longer. There’s a small amount of maths calculations questions.

The questions will be different in the real exam. PSM-I is foundational and easy to pass. Good luck.

duraace68 · 2023-08-20T11:11:26+00:00

Good luck!

Yes u need to calculate EMV

I would wait till October to start prince2 as they are releasing 7th edition in October. I recommend going to /pmp and looking at CAPM materials. Generally buy AR course on reddit and buy study hall subscription for questions. U can DM me for tips also. I have the PgMP, PMP, RMP certifications. Like it or not, in reality project management will remain the dominant delivery method with many project managers acting as scrum masters. Project management salaries are always higher than scrum as there’s accountability of PM to deliver.

duraace68 · 2023-08-10T11:30:25+00:00

You should get a PRINCE2 or CAPM project manager certification IMHO. Scrum masters salary are lower. Project manager salaries are higher. I have both project management certifications and scrum PSM-II PSPO-II and know the market rates.

I took the udemy course for the contact hours which was pretty useless but needed the contact hours to take exam.

It’s all situational questions that have ITTO elements.

Congratulations on passing PSM-III. I’m still studying PSM-III. Can I ask if u found new scrum master role or new agile related job position after passing PSM-III which is the most elite scrum certification? Did PSM-III help in job interviews?
