CPD Record

Your CPD record allows you to record each CPD experience undertaken throughout the year.

Your CPD record must contain a minimum of one record in each of the three areas of the SFR, (Professional Knowledge and Understanding; Professional Skills and Abilities; Professional Values and Personal Development).

Points to consider

• Try to identify the main focus of the experience so that the experience can be recorded alongside one key area of the Standard. There will be occasions where there is more than one main focus covered but we request that each individual CPD experience is only recorded in a maximum of two areas of the Standard (ie each experience should have only two assigned focus codes).
   
• You only need to add a brief evaluation and impact of your CPD experience, rather than extensive detail. You only need to give a snapshot of the CPD you have completed; detailed information on CPD experiences should be saved in a CPD portfolio instead.
   
• There will be core local authority CPD that you are obliged to undertake, however, it is also expected that the CPD record evidences various other experiences. Many of these other experiences should have been undertaken as a result of targets and action identified in your action plan.
   
• The record table can also be used as a framework for CPD and as such it is possible to tell at a glance whether you are achieving a broad coverage of the areas of the Standard that make up your professional practice. It is worth seeing how CPD experiences can be fully utilised, for example following up in school a core CPD experience carried out by your local authority induction manager.
