ABOUT CPD

“CPD is a combination of approaches, ideas and techniques that will help you manage your own learning and growth. The focus of CPD is firmly on results – the benefits that professional development can bring you in the real world. Perhaps the most important message is that one size doesn’t fit all. Wherever you are in your career now and whatever you want to achieve, your CPD should be exactly that: yours”

why do we do Cpd?

CPD is an investment that you make in yourself.

Many business professionals are required to undertake CPD:

  • Project Managers
  • Financial Advisors
  • Accountants
  • Human Resource Managers
  • Customer Service Managers
  • Estate Agents
  • Supply Chain Managers
  • Compliance Managers
  • Site Managers
  • Lawyers
  • Marketing Managers
  • Event Managers
  • Process Managers
  • Logistics Managers
  • Team Leaders
  • … and Lecturers!

how does it work?

The overall aim of the CPD modules is for you as a student to steer your own learning by picking online or face to face sessions that will develop you and enhance your CV and next steps upon graduation.
 

At all levels, the only mandatory activities are registering with Talent Connect and attending (or watching the recording of) your introductory session. You will however find a selection of recommended activities for your level and goals under Online activities. 

Remember, you are responsible for your point collection and your student journey. This should be reflected in your eportfolio that you submit for assessment.
