How to register your PDUs from PDUs2Go.com with PMI

The Project Management Institute (PMI) has recently made some changes to the PDU registration system and this guide is intended to help you with the registration process so that you can get credit for your PDUs quickly and easily.

The new web site address for registering your PDUs with PMI is https://www.pmi.org/ccrs/.  This is the “Continuing Certification Requirements System” page and in the upper right corner of this page you will see a link that is labeled “Log In.”  Click on this link and then enter your PMI Username and Password then click the “Log In” link next to the lock icon.

Once you have logged in, look for the green button in the left column labeled “Report professional development units (PDUs)” (Fig. 1) and click it.  This will open Step 1 of the registration process.

1. For “PDU Category” select  “Cat 3: Registered Education Provider program/PMI Component Event.” (Fig. 2)
2. For “Activity type” select “Find an Activity (Course or Event).”  Then click the green “Next” button at the bottom of the page. (Fig. 2)

3. In Step 2 you will be asked for several pieces of information.  In your Course Guide you will find a number labeled “Program ID” that will be in the format: 1637-xxxxxxx.  The digits before the hyphen are the “Provider number” asked for in Step 2.  This will always be 1637, which is PDUs2Go/Optimo’s R.E.P. number. (Fig. 3)
4. Leave the next field “Provider name” blank. (Fig. 3)
5. Use the numbers after the hyphen in the “Program ID” number above to fill in the “Activity number” field. (Fig. 3)
6. Leave the last field “Activity name” blank and click the “Search” button. (Fig. 3)
