What You Need To Know To Recertify Your PMP Credential |
A project manager has to be many things. To name just a few, a PM has to be a great communicator, a leader, a visionary, and be able to both build and inspire the team. First and foremost, however, a project manager has to be proactive. We employ strategies to plan
the future in order to proactively minimize risk on our projects so that we can deliver on time and on budget.
Why then is it that when November comes around you can hear a collective groan rise from the worldwide community of PMPs as they ask, where they could quickly get 20, 30 or even 40 or more PDUs before the year is through? Is this simply a case of the cobbler's children having no shoes? No. I think that this is an acute case of the PMP community not even trying to proactively understand the PMI's recertification requirements. I am writing this in May of 2008, there are seven more months in the year, and I want to help you understand how you can very easily gain all the PDUs you need before the year is
through. |

As of the moment, We did not receive a question from our readers (You) about PDUs.
This could mean one of two
things:
1. We have explained EVERYTHING there is to explain about PDUs and you don't have any questions any more
2. Everyone's email was broken for the last 3 weeks and you could not send us your questions
But seriously... please let us know any and all questions that you may have about PDUs and we will be happy to answer them here.

PDU Tip: Earning PDUs Through Formal Training |
In our current series of PDU Tips we are exploring the many ways you can earn PDUs. Today we look at how you can gain PDUs through formal training.
Formal academic educational courses related to project management can earn you 10 to 15 PDUs per semester. These are
not free PDUs, as you have to be registered on an academic course being offered by a university or college. You don’t have to complete a whole degree and in fact only individual courses will be recognized by Project Management Institute (PMI) for PDU credits. The transcript or grade report is required for confirmation.
