How does the release of the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition impact the Project Management
Professional (PMP®) certification exam?
A: The PMBOK® Guide is an input to preparing for the PMP® exam – and is listed as a reference –
but it is not a test-preparation tool. The new PMP®
exam, which launched 2 January 2021, will
continue to use the PMBOK® Guide – Sixth Edition as one of several references. The new exam has been planned for some time and is not related to the release of the PMBOK® Guide –
Seventh Edition.
We strongly recommend that candidates refer to the current Exam Content Outline for up-todate information about preparing for certifications. Information about PMI certifications and
future changes can be found at pmi.org/certifications.
How does the release of the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition impact the Certified Associate in
Project Management (CAPM®) certification exam?
A: The current CAPM® exam will continue to be based on the Sixth Edition as dictated by the Exam Content Outline for the CAPM® examination. The Sixth Edition is a test preparation tool that
candidates may leverage to prepare for the CAPM® exam.
More detail can be found in the CAPM® handbook.
We strongly recommend that candidates refer to the current Exam Content Outline guide for
up-to-date information about preparing for certifications. Information about PMI certifications

When will the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®) certification exam be
updated to incorporate the concepts from the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition?
A: While we will eventually update the CAPM® exam, we have not yet released a date. Once we
have a launch date for a new CAPM® exam, we will let the community know.
