Importance of CPD declaration |
Members are required to declare CPD compliance annually for membership renewal. As a reminder, CPD records in MyCPA on the Institute website do not equate to a declaration of CPD compliance, and members are still required to submit the CPD declaration with their Annual Return for Renewal. Failure to declare CPD compliance will result in non-renewal of membership. Click to learn more about CPD requirements and other FAQs on CPD requirements. |
