Track remaining Professional Development Credits against SHRM’s current 60-PDC three-year recertification requirement. The useful output is not just the number: it is the number together with the assumptions and eligibility checks that can change what you should do next.
Calculation used
What this calculator uses
The inputs on this page are PDCs completed. The calculator subtracts your completed credits from a fixed 60-credit planning target and clamps the result at zero. Meeting that number does not replace category or reporting checks.
How to read the result
Use the result as a gap or timing check, then open the cited authority before buying a course, reporting credits, paying a fee, or submitting a renewal.
What the number does not prove
SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP recertification use a three-year cycle and a 60-PDC route, but the portal record, activity eligibility, submission, fee, and grace-period timing still matter.
Best next step
Use the result as a gap or timing check, then open the cited authority before buying a course, reporting credits, paying a fee, or submitting a renewal.
