The future of Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
Continuing professional development is essential to ensure that social workers remain up-to-date with professional developments, and can adjust their practice in line with new evidence. The recommendations in the new approach recognise that learning can, and does, take place in a range of different ways and circumstances. It is not always associated with a ‘course’ and the development need may be met through a range of different activities. Outcomes of learning and career development routes are identified within the professional capabilities framework (PCF). This broad conception of CPD has led to the following principles which underpin the approach, which were originally set out by the Social Work Reform Board.
