## PMP 2026 exam transition resources

The PMP exam changes on July 9, 2026. ThinkLouder publishes a class catalog and three data-led lead magnets on this transition:

- [PMP Class Catalog](https://thinklouder.com/pmp/) — Live online PMP certification prep for both the current exam (sit before July 9, 2026) and the new exam (July 9 onward). PMI Premier ATP-delivered. Bootcamps, weekend, evening, and morning formats. From $1,095. 100% money-back pass guarantee.
- [PMP Decision Guide](https://thinklouder.com/pmp-decision/) — Should you take the current PMP exam or wait for the new one? An honest three-gate, four-scenario framework. For most candidates, the new exam is structurally safer.
- [PMP Application Checklist](https://thinklouder.com/pmp-checklist) — A practical guide to getting your PMI application approved on the first try. Covers eligibility paths, the 35 contact-hour rule, audit-proofing, and the experience write-up template PMI reviewers want.
- [PMP Salary Report 2026](https://thinklouder.com/pmp-salary-report-2026/) — Data-driven look at PMP-credentialed compensation in 2026, including the CSM + PMP stacking premium ($148,000 estimated median). Sourced from BLS, PMI Earning Power 14th edition, Glassdoor, Payscale, and LinkedIn. Tenured PMPs (10+ years credentialed) can earn in excess of $173,000.

## Free practice games

Free, no-signup interactive study games for project management concepts. Playable in any browser.

- [All practice games](https://thinklouder.com/games/) — Hub page listing every free game.

- [On the Spot: Earned Value Management Game](https://thinklouder.com/games/on-the-spot/) — Timed decision game for practicing earned value management. Each round shows a project's PV (planned value), EV (earned value), and AC (actual cost); players call schedule (SPI = EV ÷ PV) and budget (CPI = EV ÷ AC) status under a 20-second clock. Includes a 2-minute EVM explainer video, formula reference, and worked examples. Useful for PMP exam prep and anyone learning to read project health from EVM indices.
- [Telephone Tree: Communication Channels Game](https://thinklouder.com/games/telephone-tree/) — Survival game about the communication channels formula, n(n-1)/2. Every pair of teammates is a channel that goes stale unless refreshed; new teammates keep joining until trust collapses. Teaches why coordination overhead grows quadratically while team size grows linearly. Useful for PMP communications management prep and team-design discussions.
- [Risk Expedition: Risk Response Game](https://thinklouder.com/games/risk-expedition/) — Turn-based decision game about risk response strategy. Each of 8 weeks brings one project risk with its own probability and impact; players spend limited tokens to avoid, transfer, mitigate, or accept it, then a dice roll resolves the outcome. Teaches the four negative-risk response strategies, the probability-impact matrix, and expected monetary value. Useful for PMP risk management prep.
