Do you have your PMOCP? If so, will you leave it as is, or convert to PMI-PMOCP?

Mike Frenette Manager, IT PMO| Halifax Water (retired) Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

With PMI's acquisition of PMOGA comes a longer, tougher exam and a new certification, PMI-PMOCP (Certified Professional). The previous PMOCP (Certified Practitioner) certificate holders have an option to convert to the PMI-PMOCP and lock into the PDU requirements, or retain their PMOCP as a grandfathered certification that no one else will be able to apply for as of February 4, 2025.

If you have your PMOCP, are you planning to convert to PMI-PMOCP? Or will you keep the PMOCP certification? What led you to the decision you made?

I appreciate the detailed information about the transition from PMOCP to PMI-PMOCP. If I held the PMOCP certification, I would likely consider converting to the PMI-PMOCP.
