CPD Approved Employer Scheme

We are working with financial services organisations to recognise the development activity which you do at your place of work to make it simpler for you to include this in our scheme. Rather than recording CPD activity on an individual basis, the majority of your development can be achieved within the overall framework of a CPD Approved Employer Scheme.

In the first instance, the Employer’s staff development and appraisal scheme needs to be reviewed and approved by the Institute as meeting the professional development needs of our members.

Principles of the scheme

Principle 1 Principle 2 Principle 3 Principle 4 Principle 5
Organisations encourage employees develop professional judgment and ethical sensitivity Organisations are  committed to developing their employees Development opportunities are made available to individuals Development activity is recorded and monitored Development needs are reassessed and performance reviewed on a regular basis

Details of examples of supporting evidence demonstrating compliance with the scheme are included in the application form.

We need to make sure our people have the opportunities to learn and qualify right across the full range of disciplines.
