Guide to help you complete your CPD requirements
It’s easy to meet the requirements of your CPD. Sign up to one of the profession’s up-coming events, read one of our sessional papers or download and listen to an mp3 file.
There are two categories of members for CPD: Category 1 and Category 2. If you are unsure which one you fall into, you can check here.
If you have already met your requirement, make sure you log in and list everything you have done before the deadline of 31 July 2013.
All Fully Regulated Associates and Fellows are required to comply with the CPD Scheme and an extract of how you can do this is pasted below.
All members are reminded that unless you hold a practising certificate, have moved to out of scope of the CPD requirements or have applied for exemption from the CPD Scheme you will be required to complete sufficient CPD and record this in your online record.
