Why does the learning in my CPD log appear incomplete?

Most of the learning you complete in the Knowledge centre will be added to your CPD log automatically; you may also add CPD manually e.g.
external CPD. To ensure it is marked as complete:

  • Ensure you have entered all the fields marked with a red*.
  • Ensure you add a learning outcome for each activity, which is your reflection on what you have learnt and how you will apply it.
