I have been in a managing role since last 3 years and would qualify for the 4500 hrs PMI requirement. But, the first company that I was part of and accounts for at least 1000+ qualifying hours has been dissolved and it no longer exists. Does anyone have any input on how to handle this if there is an audit? I can outline the project details, roles and dates but I am not sure if I can find anyone to support and confirm. Does this hinder my process. Should I wait until I acquire these hours in the current job? thanks in advance. Lavs. Hi,

But I am facing difficulties in understanding about the Program Management experience they have asked for. I am into this field for last 10 years. Sometimes I worked on 2-3 different programs simultaneously, which was multi year program. So, does program experience also needs to be without overlap (then it will be hard to show 6000+ hours)?

I understood that I am eligible as they have asked for 4500 hours in leading and directing project. My post was just for confirmation of my understanding by experts. Yes I read handbook.
