Membership Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Guidance
CPD Log
Annual CPD is a requirement of ISBL membership. Members must log the required number of CPD hours each year to demonstrate their ongoing professional development and maintain knowledge in line with their level of practice. ISBL recognises that CPD can take many forms, not just formal training and qualifications.
Download our CPD guidance for more information on what counts as CPD.
More about uploading CPD
-
As a member of ISBL, you are required to complete a minimum number of hours of annual CPD. The membership categories and annual commitments are set out below (as detailed on the membership categories page):
Affiliate / Student / Foundation member – 7 hours
Associate member – 14 hours
Full member – 21 hours
Fellow member – 35 hours
-
We have made this a really simple process — you can now complete an annual spreadsheet listing the hours of CPD completed and then simply upload this to your login portal (which also enables you to keep a copy for your own records and annual appraisal).
You can access the CPD log and template through your SheepCRM membership portal or by clicking here. Alternatively, download a copy of the CPD log template and upload when you are ready.
-
We request that members upload their CPD records for each academic year by 31 August (covering 1 September – 31 August).
All annual CPD logs must be uploaded into the SheepCRM system.
-
As this is a new system, previous data uploaded has not been transferred but is retained by ISBL for audit purposes in line with GDPR. If any member requires a copy of CPD data supplied in the previous year, then this can be requested by emailing training@ceoe.org.uk.
