These study guides can be useful as quick reference sheets (although they are getting fairly long). Each guide has a similar structure. It begins with a listing of reference material to study. Then it gives more detail on specific things to study. Then key definitions are given followed by a brief description of the knowledge area processes and concepts. Lastly, sample question and answers are given including the answers.

Integration Management

Project Human Resources Management includes the processes to make this part of the project successful. Each process has a set of input and a set of output. Each process also has a set of tools and techniques that are used to turn the input into output.

Communications Management
There is a substantial amount of communications that must occur in any project. Information must be generated in a timely manner. It must also be collected, disseminated, stored, and destroyed at the appropriate time. The project communications management knowledge area contains the processes to get this job done. Each process has a set of input and a set of output. Each process also has a set of tools and techniques used to convert input into output.

Risk Management
Risk management must be an integral part of any project. Everything does not always happen as planned. Project risk management contains the processes for identifying, analyzing, and responding to project risk. Each process has a set of input and a set of output. Each process also has a set of tools and techniques that are used to turn the input into output.

Procurement Management
The project procurement management knowledge area includes processes that are used to manage what to procure and when to procure it.
