Introduction
This knowledge area requires you to understand six
processes, as described in the book PMP®
plan scope management, collect requirements, define
scope, create WBS, Validate scope, and control scope.
This chapter covers the scope topics that most people
have trouble with. However, if you understand basic
project management and work breakdown structures,
this area shouldn’t be difficult.
