  7. Principles of CPD • CPD allows doctors to demonstrate that they are maintaining their skills in their practice. It also allows doctors to develop professionally and to learn from more informal experiences • CPD encourages and motivates doctors to learn. It should be closely related to each doctor’s individual needs, ambitions and personal learning styles. This focus on the doctor’s learning needs will support changes and improvements in practice.

  8. Principles of CPD (cont’d) • The ultimate purpose of CPD is to contribute to high-quality patient care whilst taking into account the needs and wishes of patients. • CPD also helps doctors to improve their professional effectiveness, career opportunities and work satisfaction. • CPD should also include public and patient involvement.

  9.
