Continuing professional development (CPD) helps you maintain and increase the knowledge and competence you gain from both formal study and professional experience.
Keeping your qualifications and knowledge up to date enables you to meet and exceed customer and regulatory requirements.
Our CPD schemes can help you to meet your CPD requirements under the Central Bank’s Minimum Competency Code, and can help you to develop your career.
We are happy to review your event to see if we can award it CPD hours. You may be asked to supply a copy of the course material e.g. slides, course outline, syllabus, agenda.
If you have attended one of our events or webinars and it is relevant to you, the hours will be automatically applied to your log about 10 working days after the event.
