Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) Program
PMI’s Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) program supports the ongoing educational and professional development of our certification holders so they are always prepared to meet the demands of today’s complex business environment.
The purpose of the CCR program is to:
- Enhance continuous learning and development among certification holders
- Provide direction in development areas to ensure relevancy of certified practitioners
- Encourage and recognize individualized learning opportunities
- Offer a mechanism for attaining and recording professional development activities
- Sustain the global recognition and value of PMI credentials
Everyone who earns a PMI certification must actively maintain their certification(s) through participation in the CCR Program and renewal of their certification(s). The renewal cycle is every 3 years for PMP, PgMP, PfMP, PMI-PBA, PMI-ACP, PMI-RMP, PMI-SP and CAPM. There is a 1 year renewal cycle for Discipline Agile certifications.
What is a PDU?
PDUs are Professional Development Units needed to maintain and renew PMI certifications. Most PMI certifications are renewed every three years upon completion of 60 PDUs during that period. https://www.pmi.org/certifications/certification-resources/maintain/earn-pdus and how to align them with the PMI Talent Triangle.
