This opening episode introduces the PMI-ACP certification exam and explains how it differs from other professional credentials in the project and program management space. Listeners will gain an overview of the exam format, including the structure of multiple-choice questions, situational items, and how adaptive testing strategies are applied. The session also clarifies the PMI-ACP’s coverage of agile practices from multiple frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban, XP, and Lean, giving candidates a realistic sense of what to expect on exam day. By framing the credential as a validation of agile fluency rather than mastery of one method, this episode sets expectations clearly.

The discussion moves into how scoring works, including how PMI determines passing thresholds, item weighting, and domain distribution across the seven knowledge areas. Understanding the scoring system helps candidates prioritize their study efforts and build confidence in balancing depth with breadth of preparation. Finally, the episode introduces the concept of psychometric testing and why PMI uses it to ensure fairness and reliability in exam outcomes. By the end of this episode, learners will have a strong grasp of what the PMI-ACP exam measures and why its format reflects agile values in practice. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
