Social Care Wales have changed the CPD requirements to make it simpler!

Do I still need to complete Continuing Professional Development (CPD)?

Yes. If you're on the Register, you must still keep your training and learning up to date. Registered people (except social work students) must keep records of your CPD and regularly discuss it with your manager to ensure it helps improve your delivery of care and support. We may check a sample of records.
