CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. It refers to the process of tracking and
documenting the skills, knowledge and experience that you gain both formally and informally as you
work, beyond any initial training. It's a record of what you experience, learn and then apply. The term
is generally used to mean a physical folder or portfolio documenting your development as a
professional. Some organisations use it to mean a training or development plan, which I would argue
is not strictly accurate. This article is about CPD as a process of recording and reflecting on learning
and development.
For some roles and jobs, individuals will be required to gain additional qualifications that cannot be
obtained in general education. An example of one of these is known as a LPC or a legal practise
course. This is required by lawyers who want to operate for well-known firms. CILEx is also available
to people who do not want to go to university and want to gain a qualification whilst working
instead.
1. Induction Training - Induction training is the training that an employee receives
when he/she first joins a business or organisation.
2. On the job training - Employee training at the place of work whilst he or she is doing
the actual job. Usually a professional trainer (or sometimes an experienced
employee) serves as the course instructor using hands-on training often supported
by formal classroom training.
3. Professional Development - Process of improving and increasing capabilities of staf
through access to education and training opportunities in the workplace.
4. Graduate Training Programmes - Allows graduates to experience many aspects of
both the role and the organisation as a whole.
5. Shadowing - Job shadowing is a popular on-the-job learning, career development,
and leadership development program.
