- Is this program certified?
- Vohra’s Wound Care Certification is internationally accredited as a CPD program, compatible with the required Continuing Professional Development global standards and benchmarks.
- What CPD stands for?
- CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. Engaging in Continuing Professional Development ensures that both academic and practical qualifications do not become outdated or obsolete, allowing individuals to continually ‘up skill’ or ‘re-skill’ themselves, regardless of occupation, age, or educational level.
- Where is this accreditation accepted?
- Whilst based in the UK, the CPD Certification Service accreditation operates internationally and meets the CPD requirements and expectations for all professional bodies, regulators and membership organizations across the globe. This means that a professional attending an accredited CPD training activity outside of the UK can receive a CPD Certificate of Attendance, which can then be used towards both national and international CPD requirements.
- How is CPD recorded?
- An individual is responsible of keeping track of their annual Continuing Professional Development activities on a CPD record form and must ensure it is correct, up to date and meets the requirements of their professional body of association. The CPD undertaken is recorded by a CPD Certificate of Attendance, CPD Self-Assessment forms and personal CPD Record Cards. Once a CPD certified activity has been delivered, the attendee can update their CPD record sheet and attach the associated certificate.
- What are the benefits of CPD?
- CPD helps individuals to regularly focus on how they can become a more competent and effective professional. Training and learning increases confidence, overall capability, and compliments career aspirations.
- Who requires CPD?
- Most institutions provide their members with Continuing Professional Development requirements generally as a required annual number of hours. These CPD hours are sometimes converted to points, units or credits. The majority of institutions allow members to choose subjects of relevance to them as individuals, a minority also require their members to seek CPD on a range of core subjects.
- More and more employers are taking a proactive and supporting role with the CPD required by their employees. Aside from industry associations, CPD’s importance within general enterprise is growing, as more employers see the benefits of more highly skilled, motivated and committed workforce.
