PMBOK Fourth Edition available for Download

- 5 comments   |   Readability Mode


PMBOK Fourth Edition (PDF) is available for download to all PMI Members. Follow the link below:

Link: Download PMBOK Fourth Edition

Note that anybody can download the file but it is password protected. When you try to open the file, it will prompt you for a User ID and Password. In order to open the file, you need to enter your PMI user id (www.pmi.org user id) and password.

PMI User ID is the user ID that you use to log-in to the PMI website. It is different from your PMI Member ID (printed on your PMI membership card).

If you have any questions or difficulty, post them as comments here.

UPDATE (May 10, 2009): I found that PMI has secured this link and you need to login with your PMI user account / password, to download the PDF.

UPDATE (July 01, 2009): Updated the download link. The previous (direct download) link has been removed by PMI. If you have any difficulty with the download, use the "Post a Comment" option below and let me know.

If you are serious about PMP Certification, I can help you get a free and 100% legal copy of the PMBOK Guide Fourth Edition and also save $21 on your exam cost. Read 10 Benefits of PMI Membership to find out more.

Hi Niranjan,

I didn't understand you properly. If you have the PMI ID, why don't you use the link (given in the post above) and download the PMBOK Guide 4th Edition directly from the PMI website?

Regards.

Hi Harwinder,

I have purchased a membership (Individual) from PMI on 12/16 and have received the PMI ID (online). When I try to access the link (http://www.pmi.org/Resources/Pages/Members/Library-of-PMI-Global-Standards-Projects.aspx) inorder to download PMBOK, it always saying ERROR: Access Denied. However, I am able to access MYPMI, where it clearly say my membership is valid until Dec 2010. I have contacted PMI regarding this and havent heard back from them yet.
Are you aware about such situations for others anytime before? Is there a window period after membership and resource download (PMBOK)? Any insight on this would be helpful.

Btw., Thanks for sending out the Prepcast coupons recently. I used the same and I am enjoying the learning.

Thanks,
Rajesh N

Hello Rajesh,

Since you just purchased PMI membership, there might be a slight lag in your account activation. Just try after a couple days.

PMI customer care usually takes about 3 business days to respond, and my experience confirms this. Don't expect an instant response from them.

Anyway, there's nothing to worry about. It would all work out fine.

All the best.

Hi Niranjan,

If you are the member and could not access member areas, call customer support and it would be done in 1-3 days. My friend had the same problem.
