PDU Reporting

PDUs quantify your professional development and help maintain your certification.

Here are steps to follow for the most common claim categories with a link to the official Project Management Institute CCRS Handbooks & Guides.

Remember to keep a paper record of the PDUs you claim in the event of a PMI audit.

Please note that these steps need to be taken only if you have not elected to have the Chapter report your PDUs for you when you sign up in mCentric.
