August 2020 Update
We are currently unable to offer The PM PrepCast (for 60 PDUs) because PMI is no longer recognizing courses that cover all 60 PDUs at once.
We are working on a new product to assist you with your PDUs.
Here's how The PM PrepCast helps you earn ALL the PDUs you need:
How it Works
As a certified Project Management Professional (PMP)® you need to earn 60 Professional Development Units (PDUs) every 3 years for your certification renewal. By watching The PM PrepCast you can earn all 60 of them at once. That means for just $229 you are 100% done!
So upgrade yourself to The PMBOK® Guide Sixth Edition and earn 60 PDUs in just three steps:
- Watch Videos
- To earn your PDUs you must first watch all the video lessons of The PM PrepCast. Either downloading all lessons to your phone or tablet using a podcast app or by watching them online in your browser. We have a list of recommended lessons to watch specifically for those earning PDUs.
- Print Certificate
- Once you have watched all the lessons - but at the earliest two weeks after your purchase - you can take the Final Exam and then print your certificate. Taking and passing this exam is a PMI-required step.
- Claim 60 PDUs!
- Log in to your online account in the PMI Continuing Certification Requirements System (CCRS) and claim all 60 PDUs at once. The PM PrepCast is already listed in the CCRS and your PDUs are pre-approved!
So if you passed your PMP® exam before March 26th, 2018 then all you have to do is watch The PM PrepCast, pass the "Final Exam" and receive your PDU certificate, with which you can now claim 60 PDUs on the PMI website. Yes... It's really that simple.
You Pay Just $3.82 Per Hour
The PM PrepCast is 60 hours in duration and costs $229. The cost per hour of training is therefore just $3.82. That's hard to beat!
Earn 60 Pre-Approved PDUs with The PM PrepCast In The CCRS
PMI's online Continuing Certification Requirements System is the official book of records for all pre-approved courses and tracking of your PDUs. The PM PrepCast has already been submitted and is pre-approved.
PDUs can be earned by holders of the Project Management Professional (PMP)®, Program Management Professional (PgMP)®, PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP)®, PMI Scheduling Professional (PMI-SP)®, PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®, Portfolio Management Professional (PfMP)®, or PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA)®. The following PDU values apply:
If you hold multiple PMI certifications then the PDU values are automatically applied to ALL your certifications!
