5-week CPD starter plan
CPD KICKSTART CHALLENGE
MAKing LEARNING A HABIT.
Last November, we challenged our members to find one hour each week for their continuing professional development with the CPD Kickstart Challenge.
The Kickstart plan was designed to help you fit CPD into your busy schedule in a way that works for you, with a choice of 20 of our latest and most popular CPD activities to get you started.
The challenge officially ended on 30 November but if you didn't get the chance to join in, you can use the Kickstart plan to refocus on your CPD at any time.
Getting started
1. Set your goals in
MyCPD
. Here is a simple
CPD goals template
(pdf download) to help. Once you have written your goals down, add at least one to
MyCPD
to earn your first 5 CPD points.
2. Choose your activities from the Kickstart plan below. You can also download the
Kickstart plan
(pdf download) and keep it handy.
3. If the Kickstart activities aren’t right for you, you can search 100s more in the
MyCPD
platform.
4. Block time in your calendar for learning - one hour each week is great - and record your learning in
MyCPD
as you go.
