Professional Development Recognition

June 4, 2015

Participants at IABM training sessions can often claim the time at the program as part of their professional development or they may be sponsored by their organisation.  However, it can be a hassle to provide all of the requisite documentation to show that the program conforms to professional development requirements.

In view of this sometimes onerous task we are pleased to advise members that the IABFM has become a member of the CPD Certification Service.  We are in the process of having most of our programs certified for Professional Development purposes.  This means that attendees at any of our programs that carry the CPD certification will be able to claim CPD professional development points for attending the program.  As most professional bodies require some form of continuing professional development our membership of CPD will make it easier to claim these professional development points.  So at the time of receiving your membership pack you will also receive a letter from us indicating that the program you have just completed was assessed by the CPD Certification Service as qualifying for CPD recognition.

Programs that have been certified will have the CPD logo on any advertising as shown above.
