Various documents are available from the Faculty and Institute to help actuaries plan their CPD programmes and to help CPD Co-ordinators answer questions about CPD.

The Actuarial Profession has signed an agreement with Mentor to provide on-line CPD to its members at a low cost. The profession recognises that it is not always possible for members to attend the events it organises and has therefore filmed a number of these events for members to download.
