RMC’s current materials are modeled on the existing ECO and are therefore relevant to the PMP® exam as it is structured today. The incremental approach is more consistent with the way project management practices change over time. The old way PMI made changes gave the impression that knowledge gained under the prior editions of the PMBOK Guide was no longer relevant, requiring complete changes in the way project management is done. Now, PMI says it will be changing the exam gradually over time. Those earlier versions of the PMBOK Guide often involved changes in terminology and processes, requiring wholesale changes to the exam and exam preparation materials. That is not the case with PMBOK Guide 7th, which focuses more on outcomes than practices. The earlier versions of the PMBOK Guide showed changes to best practices in the field of project management. With the release of the PMBOK Guide 7th Edition, PMI announced it would be used as a reference to “inform the development of exam items.” Unlike previous versions of the PMBOK Guide ®, the Seventh Edition is not creating sweeping changes to the exam itself. PMBOK Guide 7th Edition and RMC’s Exam Prep Materials More details are available from the PMBOK Guide FAQs updated in July 2021.The PMP exam is created based on the Exam Content Outline and uses many sources for question development.The PMBOK Guide is one of numerous potential inputs into preparing for the exam – and is listed as a reference – but is not a test-preparation tool.Key learnings and concepts from the PMBOK Guide–Sixth Edition remain valued and are referenced in sections of the guide (presumably referring to the Seventh Edition).However, before any validated exam item is added to the exam, there is a rigorous and thorough review and field test cycle. PMBOK Guide 7th Edition will now be a reference to inform the development of the exam items.The current Exam Content Outline (ECO), dated January 2021, was designed to stay relevant for the foreseeable future, and PMI will give advance notice to the public before a new ECO and corresponding exam are launched.

The Exam Content Outline summarizes the research conducted to create the PMP® exam and includes the most critical tasks required for project managers to master their role.
