PMI's PDU Secrets
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, 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 pdu you need before the year is through. The authoritative source when it comes to your PMP recertification is the PMI's Continuing Certification Requirements Handbook. This 10-page document can be found on in the Career Development section. It contains everything you need to know about your Like so many PMI documents, it is (a) very well hidden on their website and (b) rather dry and needs some explaining. In a nutshell,mens supra society, you can gain pdu in five categories and I will highlight them today to show you how easy it is. Category 1 is called Formal Academic Education. If you are currently enrolled in an academic course that includes classes on project and/or program management then you can claim 15 pdu for a typical 15-week semester. To calculate Category 1 pdu I recommend that you speak with your university as well as the PMI to ensure that you claim the correct amount. Category 2 offers a number of opportunities to claim pdu based on your Professional Activities and Self-Directed Learning. There are many sub-categories that make collecting pdu easy. Here are four examples: 1. ) Claim up to 40 pdu for authoring a book. 2. ) If you work 1, 500 hours per year as a project manager, you can claim up to 15 pdu. Yes, you get pdu just for being a PM. 3. ) Teaching a project management course gives up to 10 pdu
4. ) Be a speaker at your local PMI chapter dinner meeting and claim 5 pdu. The absolute easiest way to claim pdu in this category, however,nike shoe for sale, is the sub-category for Self Directed Learning. Here you can claim another 15 pdu for a number of simple, self-study activities. The ones that I recommend are to read a project management book or - even better - listen to a project management Podcast. You can find about six free such podcasts by googling the term "project management podcast". This brings us to Category 3, which refers to attending educational programs offered by one of PMI's many Registered Education Providers (REP). A cost effective way is to talk to your local PMI chapter. Most offer a monthly dinner meeting (1 pdu) or monthly seminars (1 pdu per seminar hour) at a very low cost to you. Some PMI Chapters and PMI Specific Interest Groups (SIGs) even offer online webinars with pdu. And then, there are of course hundreds of training companies that have the REP status and offer qualifying in-person and online classes. You also receive 1 pdu for each hour attending project management related trainings by non PMI REPs. This is part of Category 4: Other Providers. For example: if your employer offers internal project management training then you can claim 1 pdu for each hour. This is true for almost any PM related seminar. Keep all your receipts and documentation on the topics discussed in the class just in case the PMI audits you. And finally, there is Category 5: Volunteer Service for your PMI Chapter. Granted,spyder jackets outlet, this category will not make you "pdu rich" but volunteering is extremely rewarding. The maximum number of pdu in this category is 10 pdu for elected officials and 5 pdu for regular volunteer. So the main goal of volunteering for the chapter is clearly not gaining pdu. The more important reasons are networking with your peers, being involved in local PM community and learning about all the pdu offerings that your chapter has. For me personally,ferragamo shoe sale, the pdus that I receive for volunteering in my chapter are the most gratifying and the most satisfying pdu of them all. So contact your membership director and ask about the available opportunities. By following the ideas outlined in this article you can gain all the pdu you need in just a few months. It really is that easy. The trick is to know that you have a multitude of ways available to you. So be proactive and start earning your pdu today!
