Q&A's : Why CPD?
-
What is CPD?
- Continuing professional development (CPD) is the means by which registered people (i.e. Journeyman, Tradesman and Certifying) maintain their knowledge and skills related to their trade.
- By maintaining and improving the competence of registered tradespeople, CPD is a valuable tool that assists the Board with their commitment to protect the health and safety of the public.
Do I have to do CPD?
- If you are a registered person (i.e. Journeyman, Tradesman or Certifying), completing CPD is a mandatory condition to relicense each year.
What will happen if I don't do the mandatory CPD training?
- It is likely that a new licence will not be issued to you if you have not completed your annual CPD training.
