What? Why? How?

What's the plan?
CPD is:
'a combination of approaches, ideas and techniques that will help you manage your
own learning and growth.'
Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD)
Defining CPD...
CPD should focus on the outcome:
1. Identify the need for CPD
2. Do something about it
3. Reflect! What did you learn? How have you applied what you learnt in real life?
Defining CPD...
There is not a one size fits all approach to CPD:
• Wherever you are in your career now, and whatever you want to achieve, your CPD should be exactly that: yours.
Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD)

• Define your own CPD, create your own CPD adventure...
