Have you asked your question to PMI, Carl? Given these are aggregate numbers, they might be able to answer your questiion

Hello everyone... The figure listed for PMP holders in Barbados is not accurate. When I conducted a search (took a little while), I counted 155 people in the online registry. Where did you find this information?

That's weird... I redid my numbers just for Barbados. I got 151 PMPs with only 2 new ones since I gave the numbers last. I'm not sure how both Anupam and myself could have been so off.

Stéphane, like you mentioned 'Inclusion in the PMI Online Registry is optional', I am thinking on those lines :)

Are you thinking, Anupam, that about 150 PMP holders chose to be registered since November?

If I compare to number of people by country here at PM.com the difference is important, I understand that not all are certified here.

USA 488,263 vs 8,953
UK 40,923 vs 290
India 75,111 vs 2,584
Canada 65,086 vs 2,043

Just a comparison

Carl,
You should ask PMI directly, they have the information. That is the most reliable source!
They might not want to share!
