CPD is an ongoing and planned learning and development process.
It focuses on what you learn and how you develop but may include a formal process of recording it (through supervision, submission of assignments etc.)..
You can maintain your CPD record via the GDC's eGDC facility.
CPD is measured over a five-year period.
