Some resources about PMI-ACP certification

Found this list in an old email. This was how I prepared and passed PMI-ACP three years ago. So can't grantee all of these are still available now. Feel free to comment if you found issue or have new resources to add!

# the book 
This is the book I mentioned about PMI-ACP test, $69. It also on Amazon, but at higher price ($99).

along with the book, this website also provide a combo, with some tests. I didn't try them, so don't know whether they're good or not.

# online course 
I also bought this online course, to get 21 PDUs, which is a must-have for the test. I bought 90 days access ($179.99), but actually 30 days($99) is already enough if you have enough time in those 30 days. They have same things, just different access time. The course comes with some video training (from those you'll get 21PDUs), and 3 free tests, which has bad design and some answers are even wrong.
