Advice on completing CPD requirements

  1. You should firstly read the new 2007-2009 CPD guidelines booklet thoroughly, maybe even twice. 

  2. Once you have read them in full, refer to the accompanying Help Sheet which answers the most frequently asked questions.  

  3. If you are still unsure of anything in relation to your CPD requirements you may find the answer on our FAQs CPD Frequently Asked Questions or you can contact us with any queries or indeed with any comments you may have in relation to the programme (full contact details are on page 13 of the new 2007-2009 Guidelines booklet) or go to the Contact Us page of this website.  

  4. Alternatively if you are unsure as to whether an event will count for CPD you can complete the attached 'Formal CPD Request Form' giving full details of the event in question and enclosing any additional information i.e. presentation slides, course content etc. and return it to us by fax of email Formal CPD Request Form

  5. Then we suggest you try to plan how you are going to achieve your CPD. Perhaps break the year(s) down into weeks or months or quarters, and plan to complete a realistic amount of formal and/or informal CPD activity during each period.

  6. Don't leave it all until the last minute! You are required to complete a minimum of 15 hours CPD each year, but you should aim to complete an average of 20 hours per annum in order to meet your overall requirement of 60 hours by the end of the three-year cycle. 

  7. If you have any queries in relation to your CPD requirements, you can consult our FAQs or alternatively email us as info@cpd.ie
