PMP Exam Changes in 2026

We would like to inform everyone that the PMP Exam format will change on July 9, 2026. This is to reflect real-world changes in the project management profession. In this regard, we encourage all those who have previously taken the PMP Review Course to take the exam before the exam changes to ensure a higher chance of success.

FAQS

Q: What will be the major changes in the exam format?

A: PMI has not specifically mentioned what the exact changes are. HOWEVER, we were informed that a NEW Exam Content Outline (ECO) will be released as part of that new exam. This essentially means the test coverage will now be different.

Q: Will my current PMP Review Course still be considered as part of the 35 contact hours needed to apply for taking the exam?

A: Yes! Although admittedly, it might be more difficult for you to pass since the exam coverage is different.

Q: Do I still have time to take the current exam format?

A: Definitely. We strongly suggest you start the application process. However, do note that the number of exam takes increase before an exam change so you might have challenges with the availability of slots in exam sites.

Q: How can Crossworks help?

Q: I have colleagues who also want to take the PMP Exam now. Do you still offer a PMP Review Course in the current exam format?
