Membership

Chapter membership is part of PMI membership. One sign-up at pmi.org, two memberships: the international organisation and the local community.

What you get

A local community

People doing the same job, in the same country, under the same constraints. That is the part international membership alone does not give you.

PDUs from the conference

The annual conference carries PDUs towards keeping a certification current. What a PDU is and how to claim one is explained on the PDU page.

Standards and knowledge

Access to PMI standards, including the PMBOK® Guide, and to the organisation’s digital library.

Cheaper exams

Members pay less for certification exams. On the PMP, the difference covers a good part of the membership fee.

Volunteering that shows

Running an event, working in a team, editing content - experience that reads well on a CV and earns PDUs.

Career

Contact with people who hire project managers, and with companies that back the profession.

Events across Europe

The chapter has been part of the European Chapter Collaboration since October 2019. Members attend other European PMI chapters’ events for the same price their local members pay.

What it costs

Since 1 February 2026 the chapter is on PMI’s new membership model: one membership and one annual fee, paid at pmi.org, with the chapter included in it. PMI sets the price and changes it, so it is read there rather than repeated here.

Chapter portionIncluded pmi.org Opens on another site

Until 1 February 2026 the chapter fee was paid separately, as a second line. The chapter announced the change on 23 January 2026; existing members get the details from PMI by email.

Common questions

Do I need a certification to join?

No. Membership is open to anyone working on projects or wanting to - certification is a separate thing entirely.

Do I have to be a member to attend an event?

Not for every event. Some are open to everyone; at others members pay less or get priority when places are limited.

Can my employer pay for it?

Yes. Payment happens at pmi.org and you get a receipt to hand to accounting.

What if I am already a PMI member?

Then choose PMI North Macedonia Chapter as your chapter in your pmi.org profile. It is part of the same membership - no second sign-up and no separate payment.

Where do I pay?

Only at pmi.org. This site takes no payments and asks for no card details - that is a deliberate decision.

Ready?

Joining takes a few minutes and happens on PMI’s own site.
