I took my 35 training hours in September 2021. Do the hours expire?

Hi Jessica - are you referring to the hours required in applying for a PMI certification?

Hi Kimberly,

Yes, I am working on the application to take the test and wondered if my hours expired.

Thanks,
Jessica

Jessica -

No - there is no "no later than" clause for training hours unlike experience months but in general it is a good idea to not go back any further than eight years.

Learning is forever. However, I agree with Kiron that 8-10 years is about as far back as you want to go. Also be mindful, other courses like a team-building, communications, quality management and leadership courses count as well. It does not need to be a 35 hour boot camp to be approved by PMI. Anything related to what a project manager does during a typical project workday.
