Do the courses count towards my CPD hours?

  • Yes, as veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses you are required to record your CPD using the 1CPD digital recording platform. You will find a link to 1CPD in the navigation menu. The navigation menu can be opened by selecting the arrow on the right-hand side. The 1CPD link is available at the end of each course and module to help you directly record and reflect on your learning.
  • The course durations listed for each course or module are just estimates to help guide your planning, as we recognise that everyone learns at their own pace. When recording your CPD on 1CPD, you should log the actual time it took you to complete the learning. And don’t forget to include your reflection as part of the process.
