13. CPD is a continuous process and actively seeks
to improve skills, knowledge and performance.
Learning needs should be defined and agreed in
collaboration with line manager but owned and
managed by the individual learner.
CPD should be based on a rigorous and
continuous analysis of professional learning
needs.
CPD activities should be planned in advance
through a personal development plan, and
should reflect and be relevant to current
and future professional practice and
performance.
14. CPD acknowledges varying learning styles
and includes a wide range of formal and
informal learning activities.
The key principle of CPD is that it is self-
directed.
CPD requires professionals to identify their
learning needs based on an evaluation of their
practice against recognized professional
standards; develop a learning plan based on
the needs identified; participate in CPD
activities which meet these learning needs;
and reflect on the value of these activities to
their practice.
16. INDIA BOASTS OF HAVING THE LARGEST NUMBER
OF MEDICAL SCHOOLS IN THE WORLD
BUT CPD IN RUDIMENTARY STAGE ONLY
THE LEGISLATION TO MAKE CME MANDATORY
HAS LITTLE PROGRESS
EACH STATE HAS ITS OWN INDIVIDUAL NORMS ,
NO NATIONAL GUIDELINE
10 STATE MEDICAL COUNCILS HAVE MADE RE-
REGISTRATION OF LICENSE TO PRACTISE
MANDATORY, BASED ON REPORTING CME CREDIT
HOURS – KERALA, GOA, GUJARAT, PUNJAB, TN, UP
etc…
17. For nurses also, there is no mandatory national
legislation
TNAI conducts programs at various regions.
Skill Lab started at head quarters of TNAI
Different states are having different norms
Delhi, Maharashtra, Tamilnadu, Andhra Pradesh
and Kerala Nursing and Midwifery Councils have
made it mandatory to have minimum 30 credit
hours per year, like that 150 for 5 years for
renewal of registration.
Also these nursing councils give guidelines for
conducting CNE Programs, approved CNE

43. Governments, regulatory bodies,
employers, and professional associations
all have a responsibility to ensure services
Provided are safe and protect the public.
They have to demonstrate accountability.
Individuals have an ethical
responsibility to their patients and
clients, their professions, and
themselves to practice competently
and safely. CPD should be an integral
part of their professional life whether
voluntary or mandatory.
44. There should be a minimum
requirement, but there is no maximum.
Requirements for health professionals
vary globally from the equivalent of 20
hours annually to 50 hours annually
sometimes spread over 2-3 years.
CPD requirements must be: reasonable,
achievable, fair, accessible to all (includes
cost considerations), transparent, flexible,
and inclusive (avoid monopoly).
45. Awarding CPD points for learning
activities requires the development of a
formal process which involves
personnel, time and cost.
Specifying a minimum number of hours of
CPD activity is a satisfactory first step. In
some programs, one hour of active learning
= one CPD point. In other programs,
different types of CPD activities have
different values eg one hour of formal
learning might attract 3 points whereas one
hour of informal learning might only attract
one point.
46. Continuing Nursing Educational programme & Credit points.
It is proposed that Andhra Pradesh Nurses and Midwives Council will issue credit
hours/points to the registered nurses who participate in CNE as per the Council
guidelines. A.P. Nurses and Midwives Council will periodically review the criteria
/guidelines / Norms to have uniformity with INC criteria and may update them in
the interest of nurses and patients at large.
A Nurse/Midwife/MPHW (F) should participate in continuing Nursing Education
programs to gain 30 hours per year up to 150 credit hours over a period of every 5
years.
Modes of Continuing Nursing Education
a) Combination of theory and practicum 30 hours = 15 credits
b) Exclusive Theory based CNE
c) Exclusive clinical / practicum CNE
Eligible organizations for CNE
1. CNE organized by APNMC
2. Registered professional bodies/ Associations (TNAI)

53. formal educational programs
short courses (face to face or online)
experiential (presenting at or attending
conferences; seminars or workshops;
supervised practice for skills development;
conducting research; developing policies,
protocols or guidelines; acting as a mentor or
preceptor; participating in committees eg quality
improvement, occupational health and safety)
self-directed (reading professional journals
and books; keeping a self reflection journal;
publishing articles)
54. It would be difficult to accredit all CPD
activity as CPD activities should embrace
both formal and informal (self-directed and
experiential) learning.
Accepting only accredited CPD activities
diminishes the value of self-directed
(reading journals, presenting at
conferences, publishing articles) and
experiential learning that takes place in the
workplace (supervised clinical learning).
Both accredited and non-accredited
CPD activities should be encouraged
and valued.
55. Accreditation of CPD content requires the
development of a formal process,
establishing accreditation criteria and
ongoing evaluation of applications which
involves personnel, time and cost.
Likewise, the accreditation of providers of
CPD learning activities requires the
development of a similar formal process.
Is it the responsibility of a regulatory body
to accredit CPD activities or encourage the
development of an external body to
undertake this function?
56. Nurses undertaking formal undergraduate or
postgraduate education (FL) at a school of nursing,
college or university (either face to face, distance or
online) leading to the award of a certificate, diploma,
advanced diploma, degree, post graduate certificate,
post graduate diploma, masters or PhD, may claim CPD
points in each year they are undertaking the course.
Documentary evidence should be provided in the form
of a transcript of subjects undertaken and successfully
completed or any other relevant documentation which
verifies the number of hours of active learning,
including clinical learning.
57. A short course face to face (SF) is one with a duration of between 3-6 months
with a minimum of fifteen hours of active learning in each week and may
consist of theory and clinical components.
A short course distance or online (SDO) is one with a minimum of three hours of
active learning in each week and may consist of theory and clinical components.
Documentary evidence must be kept in the log book outlining:
• Learning objectives,
• Course content,
• Relevance to current or future work,
• Hours of active learning,
• Brief description of what has been learned.
Documentary evidence must be verified by the CPD course provider by
supplying their name, designation, contact details and signature.
58. To claim CPD points for seminars, workshops and in-service education (SWI),
the activity must be of at least one hour of continuous active learning.
Documentary evidence must be kept in the log book outlining:
• Learning objectives,
• Course content,
• Relevance to current or future work,
• Hours of active learning,
• Brief description of what has been learned.
Documentary evidence must be verified by the CPD provider by supplying
their name, designation, contact details and signature.
59. Experiential learning (EX) is learning that occurs by active
participation in a practical activity either in or outside the
workplace and which is not a part of the usual job
description.
Documentary evidence, verified by the employer,
supervisor, manager, educator or other relevant person,
must be provided in the log book outlining:
• Learning objectives,
• Description of activity,
• Relevance to current or future work,
• Hours of active learning,
• Brief description of what has been learned.
Documentary evidence must be verified by the CPD provider
by their supplying name, designation, contact details and
signature.
60. Self-directed learning (SD) is when the individual takes initiative to participate
in an active learning activity which is not part of the usual job description.
Self-directed learning usually takes place outside the workplace.
Documentary evidence must be kept in the log book outlining:
• Learning objectives,
• Description of activity,
• Relevance to current or future work,
• Hours of active learning,
• Brief description of what has been learned.
Some self-directed learning may be verified by the employer, supervisor,
manager, educator or other relevant person (eg sharing with your employer
a journal article you have just read and what you learned from it). Such
verification must include their name, designation, contact details and
signature.
Self directed learning which cannot be verified by an external person
must not comprise more than 25% of the minimum required CPD points
each year.
61. Providers and facilitators of CPD (short course face to face; short course distance
or online; seminars, workshops or in-service) are required to meet the following
quality standards:
• Be familiar with and adhere to the CPD framework.
• Ensure CPD is provided by teachers who use effective teaching and
learning strategies matched to content and the level and type of learners.
• Use valid and reliable assessment methods that provide feedback on
whether the learning objectives have been met.
• Document and retain information about program design and content;
number of contact hours; names and contact details of participants; and
