If you’re preparing for project management certifications, the newest PMBOK resources are now in available Skillsoft. The old versions will be retired on May 18.

The Project Management Professional (PMP) and Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) exams will no longer be based on the fifth edition of the PMBOK Guide. The sixth edition PMP exam is now available and the updated CAPM exam will be released May 21.

With this change, Skillsoft has released more than 35 new training resources based on the sixth edition tests. If you plan to take the exams before May 18, continue using the fifth edition resources until they are removed from Skillsoft — be sure to print any resources you would like to keep. If you are planning to take the exams after May 18, prepare by using the sixth edition resources.

Training records will be retained for completed courses, even if they are being removed. Your Certificates of Completion will not be lost.

1. Log on to your campus portal
2. Expand Quick Links
3. Select Start Skillsoft
4. Open the 35 new resources. Copy the Library ID for the course you want and paste it into the Search for box.
