CPD Accreditation

What is CPD?

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. It's a process of learning and development that professionals engage in throughout their careers to enhance their skills, knowledge, and competence. CPD can involve various activities such as training courses, workshops, seminars, conferences, self-study, and even online learning. The goal is to keep up with changes in one's field, stay current with best practices, and improve performance in the workplace. It's common in fields like healthcare, education, law, and engineering.

Key points of CPD:

Ongoing Learning: CPD is a continuous process that ensures professionals keep improving their skills and knowledge throughout their careers.

Mandatory in Some Fields: Many professions (e.g., healthcare, law, engineering) require CPD to maintain certifications, licenses, or meet industry standards.

Diverse Learning Methods: CPD can include formal education (courses, certifications), informal learning (self-study, mentoring), or experiential learning (on-the-job training).

Personal Accountability: Professionals are responsible for managing their own CPD, although employers often support and encourage it.
