Exam Essentials


Describe the activity sequencing process. Activity sequencing is the process of identifying relationships between the project activities.

Name the two major relationships between dependent tasks . A predecessor is a task that exists on a path with another task and occurs before the task in question. A successor is a task that exists on a common path with another task and occurs after the task in question.

Name the four types of task relationships. The four types of task relationships are finish to start, start to start, start to finish, and finish to finish.

Know and understand the three most commonly used techniques to estimate activity duration.

Expert judgment relies of the knowledge of someone familiar with the tasks. Analogous or top down estimating bases the estimate on similar activities from a previous project. Quantitatively based durations are used if you can apply a unit-based formula to the activity.

Define the purpose of CPM. CPM identifies the longest activity sequence path in the project. This path controls the finish date of the project.

Explain a network diagram. A network diagram is used in activity sequencing to depict project activities and interrelationships among these activities.
