All Engineering Council registrants now required to engage in CPD

摘要

One of the main functions of a professional body is promoting and supporting the professional development of its members. Continuing professionaldevelopment (CPD) is the systematic acquisition of knowledge and skills and the development of personal qualities to maintain and enhance professional competence. All members have an obligation to undertake CPD and to support the learning of others.Members should record their CPD activities and what they have learned or achieved through them and relate this to any planned objectives, thus helping to determine future needs and planning as part of a cyclical process.
