Hi, Our company was a PMI REP in 2017 and then we let it lapse as it was getting too costly. Now with the new ATP Program they have 3 tiers, ME and India, Asia Pacific and North America/Europe. Our company is HQ in Pakistan, but the weirdest thing is that Pakistan according to PMI is in Asia Pacific, whereas India, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Iran, all the neighboring countries are in ME/India region. The ATP fee is almost $2000 jump between these 2 regions and when this issue was raised, PMI said, they cannot change or fix this. Can anyone comment on this? Saving Changes...

R u working at USA so more money get there. Saving Changes...
If you already reach out customer service, I don't think we can help here, each ATP belongs to a region and they added the price on that... Saving Changes...

Thanks for your reply. Yes I did reach out to PMI customer service. Well all I can say is that its not been really helpful so far and I know that PMI fancies itself as a non profit org. but has been in the money making game for several years. However this is even going further than that. Its the annual ATP fee, plus a per student fee, plus what they charge the applicants for PMP exam, plus the individual membership fee and the list goes on.. Saving Changes...
