Professional Development Unit (PDUs)

CBT Campus, a SkillSoft Learning Partner, offers online training courses that are approved by the Project Management Institute (PMI) for continuing education in project management and adhere to the “credit unit” requirements of the PMI. To maintain most Project Management Institute (PMI) credentials, holders must participate in continuing education programs in order to earn “credit units” or Professional Development Units (PDUs). PDUs are used to quantify approved professional development activities in continuing education. Typically, one PDU is equivalent to one hour (60 minutes) spent in a planned, structured professional development activity. These Professional Development Units (PDUs) can be earned in a variety of ways, such as taking approved online courses, attending Project Management Institute (PMI) global congresses, contributing to professional research or writing and publishing papers on the subject.

The Project Management Institute (PMI) is an authorized PDU (Professional Development Unit) sponsor member of the International Association for Continuing Education and Training. CBT Campus' approved PDU courses are accepted for academic credit by the following institutions/organizations of higher education:

  • American Council on Education
  • Drexel University
  • George Mason University
  • University of Phoenix

Below is a list of CBT Campus' approved online course titles for continuing education programs, along with each of their PDU values. For any questions about continuing education PDUs or our online training courses, call CBT Campus at 1-800-475-5831 or simply fill out the form at the bottom of the page and a training advisor will contact you shortly.
