Professional Development Requirement
The American Society of Cost Segregation Professionals desires that its Members and Certified Members continue to grow in their knowledge of cost segregation and regularly invest in the society.
In 2024, the ASCSP inaugurated a requirement that each Member and Certified Member must obtain 10 Professional Development Units (PDUs) each year in order to remain in good standing with the society and maintain their credentials.
Following are examples of how PDUs are earned:
- Attend ASCSP Technical Call = 1 PDU per call attended
- Attend ASCSP Conference = 10 PDUs
- Present at annual conference session = 3 PDUs
- Present ASCSP Webinar = 3 PDUs
- Author an article that is published on behalf of ASCSP = 4 PDUs
- Represent ASCSP at outside conferences = 4 PDUs
- Attend professional development webinars offered outside of the ASCSP but relevant to our field = up to 3 PDUs per year max
- You may receive PDUs by serving one of the ASCSP committees (Conference, Testing, Education, Membership, Marketing, Technical Standards, or Ethics). If you have interest in serving on a committee, contact any Board member. Examples:
- 2 PDU per exam graded on the Testing Committee
- 1 PDU per committee meeting attended
- Serve on the ASCSP Board = 1 PDU per board meeting attended
- Proctor an ASCSP Exam = 2 PDUs
- Recruit another member to serve on an ASCSP Committee = 3 PDUs
- Documentation of PDUs earned in this manner should be forwarded to: pdu@ascsp.org
The Membership Committee will notify members mid-year of how many PDUs they have obtained up to that point. If you have questions about this process, please contact us at: pdu@ascsp.org
