What is the 2023 Virtual Experience User Agreement?
All attendees of this event must agree to the policy below during the registration process. By registering for the Virtual Experience Series, you agree to abide by the following provisions:
- Presentations are the property of the Project Management Institute and the presenters. Any distribution of the presentations by electronic means or otherwise is strictly prohibited. Any reuse of presentation materials requires prior written consent of PMI, the presenter, or a legal representative thereof. Please contact events@pmi.org for copyright and reuse information.
- When an attendee interacts with sponsored content or virtual booths, the attendee consents to PMI sharing their name, title, company, phone number, city/state, country, industry and email address with the specific sponsor(s) with whom they interact. This data sharing provides sponsors the ability to follow-up after the event.

All sponsored content and virtual booths will be clearly advertised as such.
Why should I attend the Virtual Experience Series if I’m not planning to pursue a career in project management?
Project management skills are crucial and can be applied to any industry or profession. According to the Project Management Institute, project management is defined as “the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project activities to meet the project requirements.” Learn strategies and best practices from experts and refine and grow your professional skills—from planning and communication to leadership and problem-solving. Walk away with the project management skills you need, no matter what profession you are in.

How do I claim PDUs for the Virtual Experience Series? How do I file for PDUs?
Professional development units (PDUs) are reported on behalf of all registered attendees. The PDU Tracker available within the virtual event platform (under Resources) will specify the amount of PDUs per session. These claims will be automatically uploaded to the PDU transcripts of participating attendees that hold one or more of the following: DASMTM, CAPM®, DASSMTM, PMI-ACP®, PMI-PBA®, PMI-RMP®, PMI-SP®, DACTM, DAVSCTM, PMP®, PMI-CP®, PgMP®, or PfMP®. PDUs will appear on certification holders’ transcripts within 7 business days from completion of the attended session.
Attendees must access the session and participate in the offering for a minimum of 15 minutes to obtain the PDUs offered. Each attendee must be a registered participant with their own log in which they use to access the platform in order to claim PDUs. Anyone who does not log in under their own account will not be considered an attendee, and no PDUs will be awarded. Attendees may visit ccrs.pmi.org to confirm PDU reporting.
