Maintain Your Credential with PDUs
| 
| 
Professional Development Units (PDUs) are necessary for renewal of PMI credentials. You must report and track your PDUs in the Continuing Certification Requirements System (CCRS) at: https://ccrs.pmi.org/. Your submissions are subject to audit by PMI for verification by PMI-NAC.
Your submissions are subject to audit by PMI for verification by PMI-NAC.
You can earn PDUs in various ways.

- Attend special training events and seminars. These items typically offer more than two PDUs. Follow the reporting instructions on the sheet you're given at the event.
- Volunteer for PMI-NAC activities.
- Serve on the Board of Directors of PMI-NAC
Note the link to all the various credential handbooks which should answer your other PDU questions.
