New PMI e-Learning Programs

PMI Publication Quizzes is a convenient, affordable way for PMI credential holders to earn Professional Development Units (PDUs) towards their continuing certification requirements. Individuals purchase a ‘quiz bundle’ from PMI.org/Marketplace. This bundle contains an article and a link to a quiz specifically prepared on that article to test their learning. The subject matter for the quizzes are articles from PMI magazines and journals, and white papers from events, including PMI global congresses and research conferences.

Since PMI Publication Quizzes is accessed via the Internet, it eliminates the time and added expense needed to travel to events or training classes. The intention of the program is to make it easier for credential holders to earn a small number of PDUs towards the total needed to maintain their credential. Each quiz awards between one and two PDUs. This program is especially beneficial to credential holders in regions of the world with fewer opportunities to earn PDUs through PMI Chapter events or PMI Registered Education Providers (R.E.P.s).
 
In Project Movie, a Web-based self-study course, a scenario is presented in which the project manager of a documentary film learns how to apply the principles of A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide)—Fourth Edition to his project. This scenario brings the concepts of the PMBOK® Guide to life in an interesting way. This course is targeted at practitioners who are starting their project management career. For example, it can help project practitioners prepare for the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® examination, or can serve as an easy-to-follow guide to the changes and new content in the PMBOK® Guide—Fourth Edition.  Project Movie will replace the existing Project Management Methods and Mechanics Web-based self-study course.

This online course takes approximately 15 hours to complete, and participants have convenient access to it any time for one year from the date of registration. This course can be purchased through Marketplace at www.PMI.org.
