With the 2014 training year underway, now is the perfect time to review your continuing professional development (CPD) needs for the year ahead.
Accounting practices are continually faced with the challenge of keeping up-to-date with an ever changing tax environment. Ultimately, a firm that makes a solid investment in training is rewarded with staff satisfaction and client retention.
Well planned and delivered CPD delivers benefits to the industry, the public, the employer, the professional and their career.
CPD enables you to make a meaningful contribution to your team and become more effective in the workplace. This assists your career advancement and allows you to move into new positions where you can lead, manage, influence, coach and mentor others.
The importance of CPD should not be underestimated – It’s a career-long obligation for practicing professionals. Three of the most common ways in which you can meet your CPD are below.
