This article describes the steps for claiming professional development units (PDUs) for The PDU Podcast™. After printing your certificate, request credits on the CCRS website.
Background
The Project Management Institute (PMI) has retired the Register Education Provider (R.E.P.) Program at the end of 2020 (in all locations except for China). Our courses were automatically removed from the PMI® Continuing Certification Requirements System (CCRS) sometime later. Note this change is only a technical formality, and all our courses are still valid for professional development units (PDUs)! The only difference is that claiming them takes a few more steps.

Please watch this video where Cornelius shows you exactly how to claim your PDUs. The written instructions are in the section below the video.
Step By Step Instructions to Claim PDUs on the CCRS website

Important Tip
1) If you start typing in a response on the CCRS claim form, the system may provide suggestions in a dropdown list.
- To avoid errors in your claim submission, do NOT select any suggested options from a dropdown list.
- Instead, cut and paste the text from What To Enter on the table above onto the corresponding CCRS online form field. For example:
- DON'T: select OSP International LLC from a dropdown list in the CCRS
- DO: cut & paste "OSP International LLC" onto the Provider field on the CCRS.
- The same is true for the Title of the webinar... don't select it from the dropdown, but do copy it from the table.
2) In case you are audited, it is good practice to have a copy of your certificate. If you have not already done so, log in and follow the instructions described in the video on http://certificate.pducast.com to print your certificate.
