Reporting PDUs to PMI

We report PDUs every Monday for the courses completed during the past 7 days – this means courses completed on Monday to Sunday.  These course completions will be reported every Monday.  Unfortunately, PMI does not offer an API to report PDUs automatically so we must report manually.  The PDU reporting takes approximately 4 hours so the PDUs should show up in your dashboard by the end of the day because the PMI site can take up to 8 hours to process our submissions.  If you complete a course on Monday, it will be reported on the following Monday. Our reporting happens weekly and will include all course completions for Monday to Sunday.

We can report for you as long as you have entered your PMI ID number (not your PMP number) into your profile on the My account page. You can get your PMI ID number from your dashboard when you log into your account on the PMI.org site.  The PMI ID is displayed right below your name as shown in the image below.  

You have two options for reporting PDUs to PMI.

First, PDUnow will report your PDUs to PMI. This will happen automatically as long as you have entered your PMI ID number into your PDUnow account.  You will enter your PMI ID on the My Account page.  Your PMI ID number must be obtained from your PMI Dashboard.  This is not your PMP credential number.  Please confirm this is the correct number. Enter it into the PMI ID field and click the blue Save button. 

Finally, only check the box if you do not want PDUnow to report for you.

A second option is to self report PDUs to PMI. 

When self reporting PDUs, we recommend using the PDU Claim Codes that are printed on each certificate of completion. Using this code to report PDUs to PMI is fast and super easy. All the necessary data will populate when you enter the claim code for each course.  The only other information that you will need to add is the course start date (just estimate this date) and the course completion date.  To learn more about self-reporting PDUs to PMI, watch the demonstration video.

To self report PDUs to PMI®, perform the following steps:

  1. Open your browser and go to the PMI.org site.
  2. Click the Log In button located at the top right of the screen.
  3. Enter your username and password. Contact PMI support if you cannot log into your account.
  4. Click on the MyPMI drop down and click “Dashboard”.
  5. Click the “Report PDUs” button.
  6. Click on the “I have a claim code” link in the PDU Claim Code box (this is the first box in the Education column).
  7. Enter the PDU Claim Code from your Certificate of Completion in the “I have a claim code” field and click the Apply button. This will load all of the course information automatically.
  8. Enter the start date and completion date.
  9. Finally, check the box that states “I agree this claim is accurate” and click the submit button.

Once you submit a PDU claim, PMI® will send you an email when your claim has been accepted. Then, those PDUs will be applied to amount required for your credential.
