When doing your CPD, It is absolutely fine to bundle events together, there are two major rules of thumb.
- CPD Credit = New learning or enhanced understanding, it is unlikely that everything in a particular CPD session will be new or enhanced, therefore there should be more hours than credits in each claim.
- The more Credits you bundle together, the more supporting information in terms of Impact on Practice that you must outline. In many ways the impact on practice section is the most important section.
- It is best to show a diversity of CPD in your portfolio, but that is not a requirement; however, showing Credits from a number of sources is often a good idea to demonstrate compliance.
- DO NOT USE ANY NAMES OF COLLEAGUES, SPEAKERS OR PATIENTS!
