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. With The PM PrepCast for PDUs Bundle you will cover the 60 PDUs required for your renewal. That means for just $279 $99 you are 100% done!
The PM PrepCast for PDUs is a bundle comprising of two packages, Silver and Gold. Each package awards you 30 PDUs (to be precise, there are 30.5 PDUs in Silver package and 30 in Gold). You can earn 60 PDUs and renew your PMP credentials in three simple steps:
- Watch Videos
- Watch all the video lessons of The PM PrepCast for PDUs, Silver. Watch all the video lessons of The PM PrepCast for PDUs, Gold.
- Print Certificate
- Once you have watched all the lessons, answer a simple question to confirm the completion of each package, and print your certificate.
- Claim 60 PDUs!
- Log in to your online account in the PMI Continuing Certification Requirements System (CCRS) and claim 30.5 PDUs for Silver and 30 PDUs for Gold. Alternatively, you can watch, print certificate, and report PDUs separately, for each package: first for Silver, then for Gold.
You Pay Just $1.65 Per PDU
The PM PrepCast is 60 hours in duration and costs $279 $99. The cost per PDU earned is therefore just $1.65. That's hard to beat!
Earn 60 PDUs with The PM PrepCast in the CCRS
PMI's online Continuing Certification Requirements System is the official book of records for you to track your PDUs. 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)®.
With the PM PrepCast, on top of earning 60.5 PDUs for the your PMP® certification, you can also earn PDUs for PMI-ACP®, PMI-RMP®, and PMI-SP®, as listed in the table below:
| The PM PrepCast for PDUs, Silver | The PM PrepCast for PDUs, Gold | Total | |||||
