11/19/2003 -- Yesterday the Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) officially announced the launch of its new IT Project+ exam. The exam is now live and available at Prometric and Pearson Vue testing centers.

This is the first revision of the title since CompTIA acquired it from the Gartner Group two years ago. According to CompTIA, it is a major revision, with as much as 50 percent of the exam's content focus changed. The 2003 objectives for IT Project+ can be found here.

The new exam, PK0-002, consists of 80 questions and has a 90-minute time limit. Candidates can choose between the old and new exam until the end of 2003, when the older version will be retired.

Like other CompTIA certifications, IT Project+ is good for life; it does not retire.
