The Philippine construction industry is a constant state of flux, driven by innovation, evolving regulations, and ever-changing client demands. For construction professionals, simply relying on past experience won’t guarantee long-term success. That’s where Continuing Professional Development (CPD) comes in.
This quarter, Filipino construction professionals have a golden opportunity to future-proof their careers by attending a series of targeted CPD seminars designed to address their specific needs. In this article, we will share available CPD programs for the 3rd quarter of 2024, as well as explore how these seminars can propel your professional growth.
Sharpen Your Skills, Elevate Your Career
A CPD (Continuing Professional Development) point is a unit of measurement used to quantify the time and effort a professional spends on learning and development activities. These points are typically awarded for participation in various CPD activities such as seminars, workshops, courses, and conferences. Here’s a breakdown of what CPD points represent and their significance:
Measurement of Professional Development
One CPD point often equates to one hour of learning, although this can vary depending on the governing body or organization.
Career Advancement
Many professional bodies require their members to earn a certain number of CPD points annually to maintain their professional status or certification.
Industry Recognition
Employers and clients often view CPD as a sign of a professional’s dedication to excellence and continuous improvement.
Skill Enhancement
By earning CPD points through various learning activities, professionals can acquire new skills, stay updated with the latest industry trends, and improve their performance in their roles.
Compliance and Certification
In many regulated professions, earning CPD points is mandatory to comply with industry regulations and retain licensure or certification.
