In the 2009 PM Podcast Listener Survey you (the listeners) told me that you would also like to hear book reviews. So we teamed up with The PMI Los Angeles Chapter's Book Club and we bring you today the reviews for 2 books:

  1. “Death by Meeting: A Leadership Fable about Solving the Most Painful Problem in Business” by Patrick Lencioni - reviewed by Joel Fleiss
  2. "Why should Anyone Be Led By You?” by Rob Goffe and Gareth Jones - Reviewed by Hiba Hamdan

And here are the winners of our latest book giveaway. We have 2 copies of Terry Doerscher's Taming Change with Portfolio Management. As always, one copy goes to our premium listeners and one goes to our free listeners. And the winners are

  • Premium Listener: Don Brown, Mesa, AZ
  • Free listener: Benoit Ben

Congrats to both of you.

This episode of The PM Podcast is titled “Earn 60 Free PDUs” because we want to show you how to do exactly that simply by listening to The PM Podcast. Here's how in a nutshell:

  • It’s very simple to earn these 30 free PMP PDUs (and they are also relevant PDUs for other credentials too)
  • Just keep doing what you are doing right now:
  • Listen to (or watch) The PM Podcast regularly
  • Claim 30 Category C PDUs from PMI.

Many of you may already be aware of this and also how it is done, but in the last couple of months I have received a large number of emails from listeners out there asking me about how exactly to claim these Category C PDUs that I have decided to make this into a podcast. Project Management Professional credential holders need to earn 60 PDUs for PMP® renewal, so claiming these Category C PDUs will give you a headstart to completing your PDU requirements.

  • Claim your PDUs from PMI.

Many of you may already be aware of this and also how it is done, but we keep getting emails from people asking about this and starting March 1, 2011 PMI has increased the number of PDUS that you can earn in this way from 15 to 30. That is why I created this video.

Note: This video is in essence an update to the old video in episode 150, explaining how this all works under PMI's new PDU category structure. To avoid confusion, we have removed the video of episode 150 and replaced it with this one.

Ultimately, Project Management Professional (PMP)® credential holders need to earn 60 PDUs for PMP renewal cycles. You can earn half of those for free using The PM Podcast resources, and the video above explains exactly how.
