CIPFA is making some important changes to continuing professional development (CPD) requirements that will take effect from 1 January 2025.
Key changes
We are transitioning from an input-based to an output-based approach to CPD, focusing on the achievement of learning outcomes. However, to maintain professional standards, we are implementing the following minimum requirements:
- A minimum of 20 hours of learning
- Mandatory completion of one hour of ethics-related verifiable CPD within this total.
Watch this space – full information and the updated CPD policy will be issued shortly.
