All non-clinical Fellows must now meet the following registration standards:

• complete a minimum of 50 hours per year of CPD activities that are relevant to their scope of practice and individual professional development needs
• complete the specialist high-level requirements set by ACSEP
• allocate their minimum 50 hours per year between the following types of CPD activities:
  • at least 12.5 hours (25 per cent of the minimum) in educational activities
  • at least 25 hours (50 per cent of the minimum) in activities focused on reviewing performance and measuring outcomes, with a minimum of five hours for each category, and
  • the remaining 12.5 hours (25 per cent of the minimum), and any CPD activities over the 50-hour minimum across any of these types of CPD activity
• self-evaluate their CPD activity at the end of the year as they prepare their professional development plan for next year
• retain records of their annual CPD activity for audit by their CPD home and the Board for three years after the end of each one-year cycle.
