CPD Points

Each clinic you attend is worth 6 interactive CPD points, covering the Clinical Practice and Communication domains. AM and PM clinics are counted as individual clinics. The maximum CPD that can be claimed in any 3-year CPD cycle for Teach & Treat is 24 points (i.e. 4 clinics). You can attend more clinics than this, but we will only issue CPD certificates for 4 sessions.

When you attend a clinic, you will complete an attendance form. This will then be sent to us by the clinic, and we will log your details and issue your CPD certificates.
