 As of July 1, 2015, five MBA in Project Management courses will provide the following benefit to students:

  • Pre-approved for contact hours that may be applied toward the project management educational eligibility requirement needed to sit for a PMI® credential examination (such as the PMP®). Students eligible to sit for a PMI® credential exam may immediately apply the classroom hours from a completed project management course toward the contact hour requirement rather than waiting until they graduate from the program. The student can be confident that these hours are pre-approved, and will automatically be accepted toward fulfilling the contact hour requirement. 
  • Pre-approved for the professional development units (PDUs), which may be used by current PMI® credential holders in meeting the continuing education requirement. GAC accredited programs are now able to issue PDUs to students who complete any individual registered project management course within their accredited degree program. The PMI® credential holder can be confident that these PDUs are pre-approved, and will automatically be accepted toward fulfilling the PMI® continuing certification requirement.

The four 45-contact hour courses that will benefit students consist of the following:

  • BUS 5661 – Strategic Project Management
  • BUS 5662 – Project Tools & Techniques
  • BUS 5668 – Cases in Applied Project Management
