Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
Two year free subscription to online CPD tool
An easy way of keeping a log of all your CPD activities
Every delegate that books a place on a Campden BRI public course, conference or seminar will receive a free two year subscription to myCPD* - an online Continuing Professional Development (CPD) management system. Please tick the myCPD opt in box on your registration form.
myCPD provides a highly personalised online facility to maintain details of your personal development plan (PDP), your planned development activities as well as records of your completed development, whether this is a formal training course or more informal, self-directed learning. Maintaining your CPD online allows you to access your records at any time, whether at work, home or when working remotely. myCPD will help ensure you keep up-to-date with your record keeping, alerting you when you need to update your records following a learning activity. Maintaining your development records online saves you having to keep paper records of your learning activities - you can simply upload and store all of your course certificates and even your notes and links to online resources - keeping everything stored in one place, a particular benefit when being audited.
myCPD has been developed by IFST (Institute of Food Science and Technology) and with myCPD you can:
- access and maintain your personal development plan at any time
- track both completed and planned personal development activities
- receive alerts when you need to update your records following a learning activity
- upload and store all of your course certificates and notes
myCPD is especially useful for food professionals needing to maintain their CPD as a requirement for their ongoing professional registration. For example:
- Chartered Scientist (CSci)
- Registered Scientist (RSci)
- Registered Science Technician (RSciTech)
- Register of Professional Food Auditors & Mentors (RPFAM)
- Register of Food Safety Professionals
Of course, we would also encourage all food professionals, and in particular Food Safety professionals, to maintain a record of their CPD activities to keep their levels of professional competence current - whether through paper records or through myCPD. Maintaining your records using IFST's myCPD just makes the process that much easier.
