Continuing professional development (CPD) is the learning experiences that help you develop and improve your professional practice. Anything that helps you to change and improve your practice is CPD - whether that is formal or course-based learning, attending an event, reading something on LinkedIn, using CIPD resources, listening to a podcast, joining a webinar, or having an informative conversation with a colleague or on the CIPD community.
CPD can help keep your skills and knowledge up to date, prepare you for greater responsibilities, boost your confidence, enable you to make better decisions, or help you take your career further.
This tool provides people professionals with an actionable checklist to plan, track, complete and record their CPD progress.
