How to apply for accreditation / certification of your event:

Reach out to CPD early in the process if you are new to creating an application for accreditation / certification. We can help answer your questions and guide you through the process. You can also review our CPD Activity Planning Guide for more information on the development process.

Complete the application form and submit all required supporting documents using the CPD Online Services Portal.
