How is CPD defined?

CPD, a key component of lifelong learning, can be defined as the systematic maintenance and improvement of knowledge, skills and competence, and the enhancement of learning, undertaken by an individual throughout his or her working life.

What constitutes CPD?

One or more of the following can normally be counted towards CPD:

  • Certified attendance at conferences, seminars, workshops or courses having a formal structure. 
  • Successful completion of a relevant programme of accredited study. 
  • Private study, the learning outcomes of which can be demonstrated. 
  • Attendance at meetings, working groups or panels where a significant personal contribution is made. 
  • Job development and experience-based learning.
  • Assisting in the professional development of others through coaching, mentoring, assessing or counselling.
  • The publication of material, including research, relating to one’s profession. 
  • The preparation and delivery of presentations to colleagues, fellow professionals or the public.
