What are PMI Knowledge Areas

Posted by Prem in Blog, PMI Knowledge Areas, PMP Certification on 08 13th, 2009 | 2 responses

Project manager efficiency is measured by their knowledge on the subject, personal traits and their experience on the job/education.

To become knowledgeable in project management area, PMI insist that a PM should be good at the following knowledge areas 

  • Integration management
  • Scope management
  • Stakeholder management
  • Communication management
  • Risk management
  • Procurement management
  • Quality management
  • HR management
  • Cost management 
Each knowledge area is vast in terms of the tools/techniques involved, the output it produce, the linkage it has with the other knowledge areas.
 
We shall discuss about each one in details in my future articles

    I am really surprised to see that Stakeholder Management process has replaced the most important knowledge area of Time management.Stake holder management is not a Knowledge Area As per PMI PMBOK 4th Edition.

    Correct me if i am wrong and would like to know your views to publish the knowledge areas in this way.

    Thanks
