The CCR programchanged in December 2015, so
you’ll want to understand what you’ll need to do to maintain
your PMI certification.
To put CCR into perspective, Beth Ouellette will provide us
with an overview of the PMI suite of credentials and will
discuss how they are developed and maintained with emphasis
on what is in the pipeline. Those of you who attended
our October 2014 meeting know that she has a
“behind-the-scenes” perspective of the credential
development process based on her involvement with the
development of the PMI Professional in Business Analysis
certification (PMI-PBA ®).
The session will discuss the details of the Continuing
Certification Requirements including the reasoning behind
the recent updates, and of course, the revised rules.
In addition, Beth will provide an update on the PMI
certification for Professional in Business Analysis, the
Practice Guide for Requirements Management, and the Business
Analysis Practice Guide. You’ll especially want to
join us if you’re considering the PMI-PBA ®.
This will be a unique opportunity to gain an understanding
of the theory, rationale, and mechanics of defining and
maintaining PMI’s professional standards. Beth will
entertain any questions and promises to take back to PMI any
items requested by the Chapter membership. As her new
role with the PMI Chapter Member Advisory Group (CMAG)
begins the week of our Chapter meeting, the timing is
perfect for our chapter voice to be heard.
