All Society Fellows can now use MyCPD in the member's portal to record their Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
Managing your CPD through an online portal offers a smarter, more efficient alternative to manual tracking. The benefits of logging your CPD online include:
- Organisation and streamlining: keep all of your future CPD records and activities in one secure, searchable place. Chartered Geographers can submit their CPD through MyCPD, providing a simpler, more efficient annual CPD submission process.
- Automation and tracking: MyCPD Automatically calculates CPD hours and tracks progress toward annual goals. Export your CPD log at any time.
- Compliance: align your CPD to the professional standards outlined by the Society's Professional Code of Conduct and the Charterd Geographer framework of competencies.
- Adjustment: automatically calculate annual hourly requirements for part-time professionals.
From 2027 onwards, all Chartered Geographers will be required to submit their CPD logs through MyCPD. For the 2026 submission cycle, CPD logs may be submitted either through MyCPD or by email.
