ACPs often have overlapping CPD obligations from their regulatory body and CfAP. Efficient structuring serves multiple purposes simultaneously.
NMC revalidation (nurses/midwives): 450 practice hours, 35 hours CPD, 5 reflective accounts, professional indemnity confirmation — every 3 years.
HCPC CPD (paramedics, AHPs): Ongoing CPD, random audit of CPD portfolio.
GPhC CPD (pharmacists): Annual recording, reflective accounts, peer discussion.
CfAP maintenance: Verify specific requirements — badge maintenance may require ongoing evidence.
Efficiency: Structure CPD to serve multiple obligations. One clinical audit can evidence NMC CPD, CfAP clinical practice pillar, and CfAP research pillar simultaneously.
Tools: iatroX CPD module (maps learning to professional domains), CPPE, BMJ Learning, local education events.
