How is CPD linked to my fitness to practise?
Although within our legislation (Health Professions Order, 2001) there is no automatic link between CPD and fitness to practise (Part V of the Order), if your actions in relation to CPD amount to misconduct (for example making a false declaration or falsifying CPD records) this will lead to your fitness to practise being investigated. If, as a result, you are struck off the Register, you cannot apply to be registered again for at least five years.
