A note on terms

What is CPD, anyway?

Continuing Professional Development is the bit of someone's working life that comes after their initial training. The reading, the courses, the workshops, the conferences, the time spent thinking properly about how to do the job better. It's how a professional stays a professional.

In the UK, most regulated professions expect it. The shape varies — hours, points, reflection logs, evidence — but the principle is the same: you can't qualify once and coast. The world moves, the work changes, and good practice has to keep up.

We sit alongside that world, not inside it. We don't set the rules and we don't issue the licences. We read the CPD material people make for that world, and we mark the kind of thing we'd be glad to have learned from.

The shape of it

Three principles. Not negotiable.

01 · No fees

Free, always.

No tiers, no upsell, no membership. The whole shape of it is: we look at what you send, and we mark it if it's good.

02 · Curated

Selected, not approved.

We're an editorial project, not a regulator. The mark means we read it and we'd recommend it — nothing more, nothing less.

03 · Honest

Real answers.

We don't review everything we receive — we pick what fits — but everyone who sends material gets a proper response.

Verify the mark

Saw our mark on a course?

Each mark we issue carries a short code. Enter it to confirm the course is one we've reviewed and recommended.

We don't publish a public list at this stage — but we'll confirm any mark you've genuinely seen.

What the mark means

A course carrying our mark has been reviewed and considered worth recommending by us at the time it was submitted. It does not mean the course is government-approved, regulated, or a formal qualification. Always check with your regulator if you need CPD for a specific licence to practise.
