Weโ€™re sharing this helpful video from CORU, which explains why Continuing Professional Development is much more than attending courses.

CPD is an ongoing process of learning, reflection and skills development that helps social care workers maintain competence, uphold high professional standards and deliver safe, effective services.

The video explores:

๐Ÿ‘‰ What CPD is
๐Ÿ‘‰ Why it matters for registered professionals
๐Ÿ‘‰ How it supports lifelong learning
๐Ÿ‘‰ Its role in protecting the public
