b'13 Continuing Professional Corporate Partner User Guide Development (CPD)CPD refers to the maintenance and development of knowledge and skills to ensure your employees remain competent as professional engineers or technicians.Planning, recording and reviewing CPD can be done easily via our online Professional Development tool, Career Manager. Keeping on top of their CPD will help your engineers and technicians to achieve their goals, keep up with changing technology, achieve recognition, develop skills and demonstrate commitment to the profession.When it comes to undertaking your CPD, your employees may be unsure of the different types of activities that count. Although we accept CPD activity from any source, we provide a wide range of products to assist with CPD, and have created the TWAVES acronym to help you remember what counts.Additionally, every year a random sample of TMIET, MIET and FIET Members are selected and asked to provide a CPD record for review as part of our mandatory CPD Audit. It is therefore not only best practice to stay up to date with recording CPD it will mean you can submit easily should you be called as part of this audit.Members who become professionally registered are also obliged to follow the Engineering Councils CPD Code.Start the conversation today,speak to your account manager'
