>that's sound like a good route to take. any other resources
>to look at?
I did my training through https://projectmanagementacademy.net/. I swear I don't work for them or get any kick back :). They basically had everything I needed to prep for the test.

>how did passing the test affect your job outlook and salary?
I work for a super-huge multinational company so this was a very bureaucratic move. My boss is the Lead for our team in the USA. I've basically been his right hand man since joining the team a few years back. The cert was basically the last bit of justification he needed to get me promoted from 'just a guy' to Associate Manager. My current responsibilities didn't change but I got a decent salary bump (12%). There are some thing brewing in the pipeline, that if it comes to fruition will allow me to basically become a regional lead and have my own (small) team. Without the promotion I technically wouldn't have been inline for something like that.


>congrats on passing, especially on the first try.
Thanks. I am no genius by any means, I have always just been a good test-taker.
