DAVID SHRIMPTON, PMP

Hello, I'm David Shrimpton, your instructor for the PMP Exam Prep Course, and I'm excited to be presenting this material to you.  I retired in 2014 from my last project, a $2 billion nuclear decontamination and decommissioning effort, where I was the project risk manager.  I thought that would be the end of 40+ years in engineering, project engineering and project management, but I'm still actively consulting and teaching part time. 

I started teaching as a graduate engineering student at UC Berkeley, then took a long break to work on projects in the US public and private sectors, and in Canada and UK.  My focus has been on environmental projects, everything from Environmental Impact Statements to nuclear and hazardous waste site remediations. Later in my career I developed an interest in project and business risk management, which is the core of by consultancy.

While almost all of my project experience is with the predictive methodology, I am conversant with agile methodologies and will be addressing both.  I first passed the PMP exam in 1994, then again in 2011, and have remained current with the recent changes from PMI and this year's 7th Edition of the PMBOK.  I look forward to our classes.
