SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP holders need 60 Professional Development Credits (PDCs) every three years. These 110 upcoming free webinars say they offer SHRM PDCs. 64 of them state the exact amount (65 PDCs in total). The rest say credit is available or pending without a number.
How free PDCs work
Attend live (or watch the recording if the provider allows it) and note the program/activity code the provider gives you.
Log the activity in your SHRM certification portal with the title, date, provider and code.
Vendor and association webinars are a common way to reach 60 PDCs without paying for courses. Check our conference list for bigger blocks of credit.
