CPD (Continuing Professional Development) refers to tracking and documenting training hours and acquiring additional skills, knowledge, and experience beyond on-the-job training.
Why are CPD points important?
CPD benefits both employees and employers in career and professional development. Employees who undertake CPD-accredited courses, like those offered by Oxbridge Academy, gain improved skills, career progression opportunities, negotiation support for pay raises, up-to-date knowledge, enhanced credibility, recognised qualifications, and a commitment to lifelong learning.
CPD courses help employers maintain legal compliance, equip employees to handle change, offer flexible training schedules, achieve business goals, maintain high standards, translate knowledge into best practices, promote knowledge sharing, reduce staff turnover, and build a skilled workforce for success.
