2017/2018 CPD year ends 30 June 2018

Open-access content Tuesday 8th May 2018 — updated 5.50pm, Wednesday 29th April 2020

A reminder to all members in categories 2-6 that the continuing professional development (CPD) reporting year will end 30 June 2018. Any CPD activity for 2017/2018 must be completed by 30 June 2018. You will, of course, have until 31 July 2018 to record your activity.

A reminder to all members in categories 2-6 that the continuing professional development (CPD) reporting year will end 30 June 2018. Any CPD activity for 2017/2018 must be completed by 30 June 2018. You will, of course, have until 31 July 2018 to record your activity.

The IFoA's CPD Scheme is the framework we use to support our members' continued learning and helps to inspire public confidence in the work of our members. 

CPD is defined by the IFoA as any learning activity:


-Which is relevant to your work or role, and 

-Which 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 so much the content of the activity that is important as what you gain from that opportunity. For example, recording four hours of CPD for a conference that offered you no learning benefit would certainly not be in line with the CPD Scheme's requirements. The scheme is not prescriptive: it is for you to determine what your learning requirements are and to select activities that will help to develop your skills and knowledge in that area.

If you have any questions about your obligation under the 2017/2018 CPD Scheme, please contact the membership team at [email protected]
