Sergio, Thanks for your feedback, looks like I agree with you I have paid for the chapter but can't join any activities even I have to pay extra for each due to timing and I am away 5 hours driving from the chapter but the PMI membership is really worthy.

PMI Membership allows you to be a part of the network, discuss and debate current issues, availability of guides and references, conference updates, local chapter information, etc.
Bharatkumar, yes that's one of the things but I still buy courses with PDU.

PMI membership offers an excellent platform to gain knowledge, diversify skills, think innovatively with so much resources to learn and apply things at work place to improve one's career.
Yes, colleagues mentioned the most of benefits, however re-mention the updating project management knowledge is very important.
Project management used to be updated from time to time ( you see the Agile practice guide comes with PMBOK 6th Ed. (PMI decided to cooperate with Agile Alliance after 20 years) as an example only.
