Continual Professional Development is a cornerstone to ensuring that UKVRN registrants remain up to date with scientific and professional developments, as well as extending their skill set. It is fundamental to providing public benefit and underpins the trust the public, employers, colleagues, stakeholders and the media can have in both individuals and the profession as a whole.
Following a consultation on the ‘Endorsed CPD Scheme’ with registrants and stakeholders in 2018, a formal annual CPD requirement for registrants was introduced in October 2019, with random audits undertaken from October 2020 onwards.
The requirements for registrants, details of the CPD Audit and guidance on CPD records are provided in the document below.
