I use 4 ways to maintain the certification (surely this is only my own experience, and there is a lot of others):
1. Working as a Project manager (8 PDUs for each 3-year cycle).
2. Participating in some volunteering activity (the easiest way is to get consulted in your chapter). The benefit is not only the PDU, this activity is very interesting and allows you to get in touch with best professionals, and improves your leadership skills.
3. Watching webinars here on projectmanagement.com. The PDUs (usually 1 pdu for each webinar) goes automatically. But not all are interesting.
4. One or two time in the 3-year cycle you can afford yourself to attend some big event, which requires the payment. Chargable events in general are more effective, more interesting and gives you really big pack of PDUs.
There are different types of PDU. Periodically refer to your profile at PMI.org and you will get understanding of which and how many you need.
You are absolutely right to start thinking of it just after getting PMP. Do not postpone to the end of the certification cycle. Saving Changes...
