Therapists must increase their understanding of Continuing
Professional Development (CPD) to maintain and improve competence.
Every practitioner will need to take steps to maintain and
demonstrate continued competence under the provisions of the new
Health Act 1999.
This book considers current policy on CPD and discusses the
theoretical basis for maintaining competence and for adult
learning. Primarily, however, it provides practical guidance on how
to develop a strategy for professional and career development, and
on portfolio preparation that shows evidence of professional
updating and CPD. Many examples are given of activities in the
areas of clinical work, management, education and research that can
be used for CPD. The development and use of learning skills such as
reflection and critical evaluation is considered central to the
process.
Written specifically with the therapist in mind, this book will
provide invaluable practical advice to occupational therapists,
physiotherapists, radiographers, speech and language therapists,
and podiatrists.
