CPD Points Explained: Why They Matter for Your Professional Growth
For every health and social care professional who has ever wondered if their learning actually counts.
You show up every single day.
You care for people at their most vulnerable. You navigate difficult conversations, complex needs, and systems that never stop changing.
And somehow, in the middle of all of that, you are also expected to keep growing.
That is not a small ask. But it is a worthy one.
So let us talk about CPD points.
CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development.
Points are how the industry measures your commitment to learning beyond your initial qualification. One point typically equals one hour of structured, purposeful learning.
Online courses. Workshops. Webinars. Accredited training.
Every hour you invest in yourself gets counted. Recognised. Recorded.
Because your career deserves evidence of how hard you work.
