The Continuing Professional Development (CPD) toolset is a core feature of your subscription and designed to support you with your professional development activities. We have devised a three-stage cycle you can follow easily to meet your annual points requirements.
Step 1: Assess capability and plan learning
Assess your skills and capabilities to help you understand your development needs so you can identify the right activities and measure your progress against these.
Step 2: Acquire skills and knowledge
Once you understand your development goals, you can go out and undertake activities to help you meet them. Your development is about you and so it is in your power to choose the activities that are relevant to your goals.
Step 3: Apply and evaluate
This final stage of the cycle focuses on the outcome of your activity and how it has helped you meet your development goals. When you log your activity, you will be asked to evaluate the outcome either by providing a description of your learning or by selecting the skills you have developed.
