TOPIC: Is PMI Membership Worth It After Passing the PMP?

Hi everyone,

My employer is covering the cost of my PMP exam, so I'm trying to decide whether it's worth paying for a PMI membership on my own.

For those who are current or former PMI members, what benefits have you found most valuable? Beyond the exam discount, have you actually used the resources, webinars, templates, local chapter events, or networking opportunities?

I'm also curious whether you found the membership worthwhile after earning your PMP, or if you mainly kept it to maintain your certification and earn PDUs.

I'd love to hear what made the membership worthwhile or why you decided it wasn't worth renewing. Thanks!
