Meeting for Newly Qualified Members

 

If so, please join us for a brief meeting in which the CPD and Registration processes will be explained by the Registrar, Louise O’Dwyer and Jo Goldsmith - Director of Professional Standards.

 

Given that Newly Qualified members are often going through a period of transition, members can be left grappling with the requirements for CPD and registration and yet registration is essential to members’ conditions of employment.

 

Louise and Jo will have time to take questions directly, and will offer practical tips in relation to managing the process.
