5 hrs needed for PMP exam!!

Submitted by Atlantakid123 on Mon, 04/15/2013 - 23:53

Hello,

I earned 30 hrs from a PMP bootcamp. I still need 5 hrs before I can take the PMP exam. Can someone please suggest where I can get these 5 hrs for free possibly?

I will highly appreciate any guidance.

Thanks!!

 Suprisingly some people do not realize that if they ever took a Project Management class in college that it counts toward your contact hours. So if you took one class for 3 hours a week across a 12 week semester then that's your 36 hrs.

 If you scroll down you will see "more free PDU's"

Hey,

Thanks for the suggestion. But I looked at this link below, and all the free pdu sources are outdated, and have not been updated in a while. So, basically i didn't find anything that would earn me free pdu's from here.

In reference of

[a Project Management class in college that it counts toward your contact hours ]

ALSO MAY REVIEW BELOW POINT

In pdc_pmphandbook.pdf, on p 9 , for Contact hours, - project management course hours are considered with the condition mentioned in bold letters as below:

 
 
The course work must be completed at the time you submit the application.
 
Here what is meaning of at the time - what will be the permissible range (period) between course completed and submission of application.
 
Please clarify.
 
 
REPLY OF CUSTOMER CARE
 
Please be informed that contact hours course work must be completed at the time you submit the application. However, there is no specific time frame to be maintained. Hence if you have completed the course today, you may submit an application anytime from now.
 
but it should be relevant to all KAs in total.
 
---------------------------------------
while in case of experience, of 36 months , it should be ontained completely within 8 years of your application date.
