CPD Points

CPD stands for continuous professional development. Professional institutions such as societies, standard setting bodies, and other regulators all have the task to help their members to keep and acquire new and updated levels of knowledge, skills and ethical attitudes. This development must be of measurable benefit in their professional practice and enhance and promote their professional integrity. The International Orgtology Institute will require its Orgtologists and Orgtology Specialists to get CPD points on an annual basis. The IOI policy and procedures on the “Practice of Orgtology” explains how CPD points are earned and allocated. The same policy also holds a CPD table of credits that shows members how much CPD points they receive for what.
