CPD Standards Office

Future Smart have been a member of the CPD Standards Office since 2023, and have passed the rigorous assessment process for our training activities to become an accredited CPD provider. This accreditation sets us apart as a trusted provider of CPD-accredited training and enables us to issue formal CPD certificates post-training courses, ensuring delegates can achieve mandatory and reflective CPD requirements.

Accreditation through the CPD Standards Office means that any professional, from any industry, can claim a CPD certificate from an approved CPD provider. It is a streamlined process, and for training providers with a rich and diverse set of delegates; it saves time and money registering with multiple institutes and regulators.

By completing CPDSO-accredited learning activities, delegates can be confident that they are consuming high-quality, innovative and informative content that will provide knowledge that is immediately applicable in the workplace. Whether professionals have a mandatory CPD record to maintain or not, undertaking and recording formal CPD is a great way to demonstrate your commitment to keeping up to date.

Continuing professional development (CPD) has a wide range of benefits for individuals, organisations and industries undertaking CPD, including:

  • Keeping skills and knowledge up to date
  • Career progression
  • A professional sense of direction
  • Professional standards of qualifications and registrations are maintained
  • Confidence and credibility are built and enhanced
