Hi Friends ;
 
I have some doubts of the PMI-membership and collecting PDUs. Could you please answer the following questions?
 
  1. If my membership is expired, will my already collected PDUs be inaccessible or lost?
  2. With out a valid PMI membership, can I earn PDUs ?
  3. Will PMI send notifications (E-mails) on upcoming web casts program  which can be used to earn PUDs to me ?
Regards

1. Accessible for 1 year.

2. Yes

3. Not sure, try to subscribe to their newsletter.

Per my personal experience, there doesn't seem be any correlation b/w having an active PMI membership and retaining CCR PDUs. It's been more than a year since my membership has expired but my PMP PDUs are very much intact and accessible.

Hi,

There's absolutely no relation between PMI membership and PDUs. You can anyways report your earned PDUs on ccrs.pmi.org, whether you are a PMI member or not. The same is also clear in the reply that you have received from PMI.

Regards,

Surbhi
