A PGA Member can earn up to seven (7) MSR Credits during the first year of participation as the Benchmark Data Provider. Designated as “Service to National,” your first (1) MSR Credit is earned just by signing up and submitting your first month of data. Then, for every three months of data provided, you will earn (1) MSR Credit up to a maximum of four (4) MSR Credits per year, also designated as “Service to National.”
The last two (2) MSR Credits are earned when you complete the annual operations survey, and those two credits apply toward “PGA Required” member education requirements provided that a minimum of three months of data has also been submitted.
In subsequent years of participation, you can earn six (6) MSR Credits as outlined above.
