AIPG’S CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
3-year period. Further, every partici- pant will be audited at least once every 7 years. The details of the CPD Audit Program are contained in a separate document. The Committee will be devel- oping and testing audit procedures as the volunteer CPD logs are evaluated.
During the first three years of AIPG’s CPD program (2018, 2019, and 2020), audits will be conducted for the purposes of working out any problems in the audit- ing program and assisting those partici- pating Members who have been audited in properly recording their CPD activi- ties. Because some participants already participate in CPD reporting programs, it may be that by the end of 2017, some participating Members can report CPD for three years and thereby be exempted from further review for at least 3 years.
If an audit determines that a par- ticipating Member is short on approved hours, the participating Member will have a period of time to bring their CPD hours to the minimum required.
AIPG’s CPD log.xlsx worksheet requests your birthdate in cell F4. This is needed in case the number of partici- pants in the CPD program becomes so large that it will be necessary to spread the CPD review program over the whole year rather than on a calendar year basis. Birthdates become the basis for spreading reports out.
