e-Learning
A number of online Continuing Professional Development (CPD) modules are available for you to complete at your own pace from anywhere with internet access, whether that be your office, on a train, or the comfort of your sofa, making them ideal for people who find it difficult to travel to events.
The modules have been designed to suit all learning styles and because they are done online it means you can spend 20 minutes here or an hour there working on them, in the same way as when you record your CPD using the myCPD system.

e-Learning survey
The Society has teamed up with the Professional Associations Research Network (PARN) to find out members’ views and attitudes regarding e-Learning through an online survey.
The provision of CPD through e-Learning is a new initiative for the Society and this survey will inform the future direction of our e-Learning plans.
The survey is being conducted by PARN on behalf of the Society and should take 10-20 minutes to complete.
Your responses to this survey will be extremely valuable and we greatly appreciate your participation.
The survey closes on 31 May 2012.
