CPD for CLD: The platform and your learning journey

The session aims to:

• introduce practitioners, leaders and managers to the CPD Framework for CLD as developed by the CLD Standards Council
• look at how the framework will support practitioners in taking responsibility for their own learning and using reflective practice to support professional development
• explore some of the rich content now available nationally
• inspire attendees to go back to their own contexts and encourage colleagues and partners to engage with the framework.
