What can I do next?
It is important to remember that the CPD courses are not a qualification, it is simply a practice for undertaking bite size pieces of learning to build skills, knowledge, information and behaviours. The learning can start at a “beginner level”, this means that anyone at any age can start undertaking CPD activities regularly.
