Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is a means of constantly improving one's knowledge and skills in a professional area. It is not a new concept. What is new is its perceived importance in the modern professional world, especially as it is becoming unusual for professionals to keep the same role throughout their working lives. New skills have to be acquired in order to allow for personal career development.
Does your professional body require you to obtain a specified number of CPD hours? Having previously permitted distance and e-learning as forms of CPD, the FSA has now confirmed that activities such as computer-based training and web-based seminars also count. Our webinars keep you up-to-date with the rapid evolution of the regulation of many aspects of Europe's financial system.
We are delighted to announce that for this purpose we are now formally accredited by the Solicitors' Regulatory Authority and ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).
