Question: I was wondering if any of you volunteer for your local PMI Chapters
and if you claim PDU credits. I am a member of the New Jersey chapter and volunteer to do work on our Chapter’s website. I have yet to claim any PDUs because I fulfilled my 60 PDU requirement early. However, I will be able to start claiming them soon. My Chapter has provided a formatted spreadsheet to log in my hours which will be very helpful. What type of PMI related volunteer opportunities have you found and how has your experience been in claiming those
PDUs? |

PDU Tip: Earning PDUs with Ideas via Email |
In our current series of PDU Tips we are exploring the many ways you can earn PDUs. Today we look at how you can use email to give you a constant stream of ideas for free PDUs.
This series has covered a number of ways for you to earn PDUs, which are essential if you want to keep your Project Management Institute (PMI) credential up to date. CAPM is the only credential that does not have a PDU requirement, so the rest of you will embark on the 3 year recertification process that requires you to log your continuous professional development with PMI. PMP credential holders need to show evidence of 60 PDUs. That works out as 20 per
year.
Are you stuck for ideas of how to get all these PDUs? Or worried that it will be expensive or time consuming to get them? The PDU Insider newsletter at http://www.pdu-insider.com will help you identify great, cost-effective ideas about how to achieve your PDUs.
