Please refer the Earn PDU's page of the PMI.ORG.
Has anyone earned PDU's on the basis of "Work as a Practitioner - Working in your certified role ". If yes - please provide me with the details of how one should earn the PDU's. Is it that if I create a WBS for a new project I am entitled for the PDU's equivalent to time taken to create the WBS. Saving Changes...

On the one hand, the handbook says you can earn one PDU per hour. Yet you can only report a maximum of 8 PDUs per cycle, against Working as a practitioner.
That would seem to imply that eight hours as a practitioner is sufficient to for a single PMP cycle.
It is a bit strange. Saving Changes...

The CCR system is clear that you can only claim the max PDUs for "Work as a Practitioner" for doing so for the entire length of your certification cycle -- that is, 8 PDUs for 3 years, not just for 8 hours of work. Full quote below.
- If you were actively working within the profession for the entire 3 years of your certification cycle, the maximum allowable PDU value can be claimed (8 for PMP, PgMP, PfMP, and PMI-PBA; 4 for PMI-ACP, PMI-RMP, PMI-SP)
- If you were actively working within the profession for half of your certification cycle, half of the maximum allowable PDU value can be claimed (4 for PMP, PgMP, PfMP, and PMI-PBA; 2 for PMI-ACP, PMI-RMP, PMI-SP) Saving Changes...
