Writing reflective CPD notes

A short reflection for each activity makes your CPD more useful and is needed for audit.

What to write

What you did, what you learned, and how it will change your work. Two or three sentences is enough.

Good to know

• If you're unsure whether something counts, log it with a note; reviewers can query it.
• You can log CPD on the go with the SFTI members' app, available for iPhone and Android.
• A one-hour webinar counts as 1 hour of structured CPD, even if you watch the recording.
