How I Report My PDUs to Keep My PMI Certification Active
A simple step-by-step tutorial for non-traditional project managers
Over the years, I’ve had many people—especially those not in official project management roles—ask me, “How do I report my PDUs?” If you’ve ever felt stuck or unsure about how to keep your PMI certification active without formal project experience, you’re not alone.
That’s exactly why I created this short, practical tutorial. Instead of walking everyone through the same process one by one, I recorded this guide to show you:
✅ How to gather PDUs from your everyday work and life experiences
✅ How to align those activities with PMI’s Talent Triangle
✅ And most importantly, how to record it all correctly on your PMI dashboard
This is especially helpful if you’re coaching, teaching, learning, volunteering, or leading projects informally or formally. You’ll walk away with clarity, confidence, and a system you can keep using year after year.
