Tips to Help Credential Holders Claim 1-2 PDU Activities in the Continuing Certification Requirements System (CCRS) Attending PMI local community events (or other short events around project management) is an excellent way for credential holders to maintain their PMI certifications. We are providing these tips so you can make it easier for attendees at your events to claim 1-2 PDUs in the CCR System. ·

For 1-2 PDU activities, PMI communities are not required to register the activities in the CCR System. · Because credential holders may not find these activities in the CCR System when claiming PDUs for these events, it is important that the communities hosting the events provide attendees with the Component ID Number and Event Title during the event. With this information in hand, the process to claim PDUs for activities that offer 1-2 PDUs is quick and easy. Please share the process below with attendees at your events.

Here’s how to claim 1-2 PDUs:
* Log in to the CCR System. A detailed “Certificant User Guide” is available at the top of the right navigation bar under the “Additional Resources” heading.
* Use your registered PMI.org username and password. If you are not registered on PMI.org, you will need to create a registered user account. 
* Select “Report Professional Development Units (PDUs)” near the top of the left navigation bar. 
* In “Step 1” from the “PDU category” drop-down menu, select “Cat 3: Registered Education Provider program / PMI Component Event.” 
* Then, in “Step 1” from the “Activity type” menu, select “Report a Component 1-2 PDU Event.” Click “Next.”
* Follow “Step 2” through “Step 6” on the website to input the information requested to claim your PDUs.

NOTE: To claim PDUs for activities (courses and events) offering three or more PDUs, review the “Certificant User Guide” at the top of the right navigation bar under the “Additional Resources” heading when you log-in to the CCR System. If you have questions or would like additional information, please contact PMI Customer Care at  CustomerCare@pmi.org or someone of the PMI Belgium Board.
