How does the Minimum Competency Code affect my CPD?

The key CPD requirement of the MCC, effective from
1st January 2012 is:
All qualified and grandfathered persons must complete 15 formal hours of CPD each calendar year.

In addition, all persons:

  • must complete at least one hour of CPD each calendar year for each function undertaken;
  • must complete at least one hour of CPD each calendar year which relates to ethics;
  • may not carry over surplus CPD hours into the following year;
  • must ensure the content of the CPD hours undertaken is directly relevant to their functions;
  • must participate in a CPD scheme operated by a relevant professional body or retain a written log where they arrange their own CPD to show that they have satisfied the requirement;
  • may apply for a pro-rata adjustment of CPD for statutory leave or long term sick leave (two months or more) but NOT for career break, unemployment, part-time work, retirement or annual leave.

In addition, firms must keep a register of accredited persons. If accredited persons do not meet CPD requirements they will be removed from the register.
