Earn PDUs

Participation in the Community Outreach Committee is by itself an extremely rewarding professional and personal experience. In addition, participation offers a chance for PMPs to earn professional development units (PDU) towards maintenance of their certification.

 

The Great Lakes Chapter has endorsed four opportunities to earn PDUs within the following categories:

  • Category 2:
    • One (1) PDU for each hour devoted to Community Outreach meetings.
    • Ten (10) PDUs per New Program- Develop content for workshop, seminar or other structured learning program.
    • Ten (10) PDUs per Activity- Present project management topic at a workshop or seminar. (PDUs earned for initial delivery only. PDUs are not earned for repetitive deliver of the same activity.)
  • Category 5:
    • Five (5) PDUs per year- Serve as a committee member in a project management association.

Let's look at the PDUs earned during an average 6-month commitment:

Community Outreach meetings

Weekly, 1.5-hours

30 PDUs

New program development

Qty. 1

10 PDUs

Present project management topic

Qty. 1

10 PDUs

 

It's plain to see that you can easily earn the majority of PMI's 60-PDU recertification requirement (within 3 years) in a short period of time- and the return to the community on the investment of your time is priceless.

 

Feel free to contact the committee for more information. The committee and community look forward to your participation!
