Continuous Professional Development (CPD) allows you to create a single source of truth for documenting professional internal and external learning.
CPD is a tool that allows you to set professional development targets across a set of subjects, it also enables you to:
- Consider growth goals, set targets, and track structured and unstructured learning against those goals.
- Track hours needed for associations to retain professional accreditation.
- Receive credit for training that occurs both internally and externally.
- Capture learning that occurs after goal setting with a mentor or advisor.
It also enables managers to review a list of their direct reports and check those individuals' CPD records in a read-only view.
CPD is connected to other Brightspace tools, including:
- Manager Dashboard to support a reporting structure where managers can view their teams' targets and progress.
- Awards for earning credits and converting earned awards into professional development.
- A widget to display progress summary.
