PMP New PDU Categories
Beginning March 1 2011, PMI has changed the categories under which we report PDUs.
The new one is good because under Category B we get 30 PDUs for Self Directed Learning, in the old system under 2 SDL only 15 PDUs was granted.
And we still have no maximum for Category B, which is always good.
Keep learning folks & keep reporting all your PDUs...
Note: If you follow my blog, I will keep posting different official ways to earn and report PDUs (without spending a penny) all you need to do is learn and allocate time and energy.
If you like what you see on my blog, leave me a comment, encourages me to post more.

Note: Beginning March 1 2011, PMI has changed the categories & consolidated and eliminated redundant categories.
The new system now has Category A, B, C, D, E & F (Much simpler, no more sub categories) like 2 SDL etc..
So you can claim this PDU under Category B - Continuing Education.
