FAQs

What documents are mandatory for an application for CPD approval?

Signed DOI (all pages), speaker bios, programme with timings

If I wish to follow the GMC guidance which emphasises the quality of CPD rather than the quantity, do I have to enter the hours claimed?

Yes, until the new CPD Diary is introduced, you will have to enter a figure for this whether you use the Diary itself or the App. The system should force you to do this because without it the synchronisation with the App does not work.  We advise you to download the Reflection Report rather than the Appraisal Report for your appraisal e-portfolio, because although that shows the credits for each CPD entry it does not show the credit recommendations and does not say whether you have met those recommendations.

I wish to follow the GMC guidance which emphasises the quality of CPD rather than the quantity. How does this affect my use of the CPD Diary?

You can still use your CPD Diary but we would recommend you upload your reflection report instead of your appraisal report to your appraisal ePortfolio.
