CPD Reporting

Please update your personal profile and ensure all content is accurate prior to completing your CPD records.   It is important that the Association has current contact information on your file, including preferred e-mail address and electoral riding. If there are no changes to your personal profile return to My CGA Profile.

You may only enter hours earned in the curent year. Because of the change in reporting from credits to hours for 2006, the Association transferred credits earned in 2005 straight across (one credit for one verifiable hour) for your 2005 - 2007 cycle.

You may review your previous years' totals by clicking on the year, but you cannot edit or change previous years' submissions.  If you feel there is an error in your previous years' numbers please send an e-mail outlining the problem to .

Your query will be responded to within 2 business days.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Reporting Requirements

Continuing professional development (CPD) reporting changed in 2006.  There were four major changes to the process:

1. Collection/Terminology - changing from using 'credits' to 'hours.'

2. Members must accumulate a minimum of 120 hours on a three-year moving basis, starting in the 2006-2008 cycle. Minimum hours remain at 100 for the 2005-2007 cycle.

3. Of the 120 hours, 60 hours must be verifiable.

4. Hours are categorized between verifiable and non-verifiable.

Verifiable activities include, but are not limited to, attending, developing, teaching or presenting structured credit and non-credit programs.

Non-verifiable activities include independent study using published learning material (e.g., study manuals, video or course CD without an assessment process) and other forms of self-directed learning.
