This webinar provides an introduction to Continuing Professional Development (CPD): what it is, why it’s important, the types of CPD, and the importance of planning and reflection.
We hear from experienced professionals on their approaches, what they have found helpful and how they have used CPD to plan their careers.
The Society aims to provide automatically-generated captions for all event recordings. The captions appear as text at the bottom of the video which you can toggle on and off. The accuracy of automatically-generated captions varies depending on the audio quality, any specialist language used and the speaker. They are therefore are unlikely to be 100% accurate and the Society does not edit or correct automatically-generated captions.
