The Project Management Body of Knowledge, more commonly known as the PMBOK® Guide, is curated and published by the Project Management Institute, or PMI. The PMBOK is widely regarded as the most credible, most referenced body of knowledge in project management. This course explores what is new in the PMBOK® Guide – 8th Edition, why those changes were made, and how they impact the way modern projects are planned, executed, and led. Using real-world stories, historical context, and applied examples, this course explains how PMI has refined principles, reintroduced structured guidance, emphasized tailoring, and updated certification expectations to better support today’s complex and fast-changing project environments. New and expanded application chapters in the PMBOK® Guide – 8th Edition address industry-specific practices by illustrating how predictive, agile, and hybrid approaches are tailored across different organizational and regulatory environments. This course is designed for project managers, contributors, and certification candidates who want to understand not only what changed in the PMBOK® 8th Edition, but why those changes matter and how they should influence everyday project decisions.
