CPD Cycle Ends on 30 September 2011
Published: Tuesday, August 09, 2011
With the current CPD cycle 2010-2011 ending on 30 September 2011, the RIAI has issued important advice to members on the RIAI website including a ‘Sample Member’s Compliant CPD Record’. This ficticious CPD record demonstrates how recent changes to the CPD Policy have expanded the range of activities eligible for Structured CPD Points, and illustrates how members can complete the required 40 CPD Points (made up from a minimum of 20 Structured CPD Points) for little or no cost. The Sample also shows that ANY learning acitivity relating to your practice as an architect / architectural technologist counts as CPD.
Activities don’t have to be approved or accreditated by the RIAI to count as CPD. The ‘Sample Member’s Compliant CPD Record’ provides an excellent tool for those experiencing difficulty in completing their record on CPD Engage.
A new document – ‘Summary of Changes to RIAI CPD Policy’ – has also been added to the CPD Section of the RIAI website. This document provides important guidance on the changes made to the CPD Policy in March 2011. It also explains that any person failing to achieve at least 70% of their CPD requirement by the cycle deadline on 30 September will have their CPD record displayed as “incomplete for that cycle”. Members who have completed 70% of the full CPD requirement by the cycle deadline on 30 September 2011 will be granted a 6 weeks grace period within which to complete their CPD requirement.
