What books or software do I need? Is there a required textbook?

In the RITX Project Management courses, there is no required textbook. All learning content is right in the edX course. 

We also do not require you to download any project management software. However, to view course materials you will need:

• Adobe Reader or other PDF viewing software (free download at https://get.adobe.com/reader/)
• Microsoft Office, LibreOffice (free download at http://www.libreoffice.org/), OpenOffice (free download at https://www.openoffice.org/), or a Google account (free account registration at https://www.google.com/drive/). Other office or document-creating software may open the file types we provide, but we created the files to open with these specific software options.

NOTE: For support for these software options, view the manufacturer's documentation.

We do list some recommended books and software on the Helpful Resources page in the Course Overview of each course. These are optional items you may want to purchase for your own professional development outside of the course.
