The IFoA's CPD scheme is the framework we use to support our members' continued learning and it helps to inspire public confidence in the profession.
Continuing professional development (CPD) is defined by the IFoA as any learning activity that is
? Relevant to your work/role and
? Addresses a personal development need.
We encourage our members to think broadly about learning opportunities. Although traditional methods, such as attending a conference or contributing to a research group, are most readily identified with gaining CPD, any opportunity to learn something new or consolidate your learning on a topic that is relevant to your work or role can count towards your annual requirements.
It is not the forum of the activity that is important so much as what you gain from it.
The CPD scheme is not prescriptive: it is for you to determine your learning requirements and select activities that will develop your skills and knowledge in that area.
