From: Dale Howard [MVP] on 29 Apr 2010 21:09 lostminder -- I did not need to prepare for the exam. Instead, I was the co-author of the book, "Ultimate Learning Guide to Microsoft Office Project 2007." This book offers 2 self-study courses that you can complete to master the proper use of Microsoft Project 2007. The Foundations course comprises the first 12 chapters, which teaches you beginning through intermediate level skills on using the software properly by following the normal project management life cycle. The last 10 chapters comprise the Advanced course, which allows you to dig much deeper into how the software works, and how to use advanced features to manage your projects. So, to prepare for the test, I helped to write a book on the subject! If you are interested in purchasing this book, by the way, you can find it at: http://projectserverbooks.com/books/ultimatelearningproject2007.aspx If you complete both of the courses in this book, you will not only be prepared to take the certification exam (and pass it with a high score), but you will also know how to use Microsoft Project 2007 very well to manage your own projects. Hope this helps. -- Dale A.
