Members need to keep a record of their CPD activities and retain the supporting documentation.  A sample CPD log is available here to help you track your CPD. In addition, an example of a completed CPD log is also available to assist you.

The Online CPD Log is available for members to use as a tool to record and keep track of their CPD hours throughout the year, beginning January 1, 2010. It provides a summary of the hours logged for the current year. Members may access the Online CPD Log at any time to report new hours, edit previously reported hours, or print out a summary. Your attendance at ICAO courses is automatically populated.

For verifiable CPD activities, you will need to provide the date, course name, the name of the course provider or sponsoring organizations, and the number of hours that you attended. Retain back-up documents (for example, the course description or outline) and records of enrolment for a total of seven years for possible review by the Institute. 

For other CPD activities, you should record the nature of the activities (e.g. the research topic, the specific new competency acquired through on-the-job training) and the source, and the number of hours.

Each year, in conjunction with the Annual Membership Fee process, members will submit a CPD Declaration form, declaring whether they met the CPD requirement, did not meet the requirement or are exempt from the requirement.  The CPD log and supporting documentation are not filed with the Institute – you retain these.  The Institute will periodically select a sample of members and ask them to submit their supporting CPD log and related documents.
