1. YOU
PASSED
THE
PMP
EXAM
...
NOW
WHAT?
Congratulations!
All
that
dedication
and
studying
you
put
into
your
PMP®
training
have
finally
paid
off.
But,
remember
this
is
not
the
end
of
the
road.
It’s
important
for
you
to
continue
your
hard
work
and
maintain
your
PMI
credential.
After
earning
a
PMI
credential,
certified
Project
Managers
must
demonstrate
their
commitment
to
the
profession
and
continuous
learning
by
accumulating
60
PDUs
(Professional
Development
Units)
over
a
3-‐year
period
within
PMI's
Continuing
Certification
Requirements
System
(CCRS)
program.
One
PDU
is
equal
one
hour
of
“Learning”
activity”.
The
purpose
of
PDUs
is
to
keep
you
engaged,
focused
and
growing
professionally.
As
a
PMI
certificate
holder,
you
should
have
a
plan
to
maintain
your
credential,
by
following
some
common
sense
rules:
REVIEW
PMI
INSTRUCTIONS
Review
PMI’s
CCRS
website
to
learn
more
about
the
latest
information
about
your
PDU
claiming
activities,
how
to
get
credit
for
your
PDUs,
different
PDU
categories,
different
ways
to
earn
PDUs,
etc.
Our
website
also
offers
some
of
that
information
through
various
articles.
DOCUMENT
&
RECORD
Document
and
keep
a
specific
folder
on
your
computer
to
keep
all
your
trainings
and
PDU
paperwork.
Keep
copies
of
the
training
materials,
slides,
PMI
Activity
Numbers,
number
of
training
hours,
name
of
organization/instructor,
and
some
contact
names.
AVOID
PROCRASTINATING
Develop
a
plan
and
a
strategy
for
getting
PDUs
as
soon
as
your
new
cycle
starts.
REPORT
&
CLAIM
Report
trainings
and
PDU
activities
immediately
after
completion.
The
more
you
delay
the
reporting,
the
less
you
will
remember
some
details
such
as
dates,
PMI
Activity
Numbers,
number
of
hours,
certificate
hard
copies,
name
and
reference
of
the
organization
and
the
instructor,
etc..
TRANSFER
EXCESS
PDUS
Accumulate
more
PDUs
than
required,
and
transfer
PDUs
from
one
3-‐year
cycle
to
the
next.
You
are
allowed
to
transfer
as
many
as
20
PDUs
to
your
next
cycle,
which
will
reduce
some
of
your
headache
next
time.
