Continuing Professional Development
In recent years the Medical Board of Australia CPD Registration Standard has introduced new requirements, resulting in major changes for all clinicians. For 2025, most Colleges have added a new requirement of four cultural safety & health inequity activities.
​
Due to the top-down nature of the reform, CPD requirements are almost identical across Colleges.
Flying Penguins is attended by a diverse range of clinical specialist from many Colleges, but most attendee's are under RACP who do not provide prior accreditation for organised private CPD activities. All efforts have been made to ensure compliance. Attendees can be assured that several past attendee's have undergone random CPD audit without any dificulties. Delegates are encouraged to contact their College if seeking further clarification.
​
Flying Penguins workshops have been designed with the intention of adhering with CPD guidelines for Catatories 2 and 3, which are the most elusive in day to day practice. With the addition of suggested workshop pre-reading as Catagory 1 activities, and audit - survey material that will be sent prior to workshops, conference delegates are able to complete all annual requirements.
​
Catagory 1: Education activities
Catatory 2: Reviewing performance
Catagory 3: Measuring outcomes
Annual Conversation, PDP, Cultural Safety/ Health Equity training activities
​
The Flying Penguins Workbook and Conference Participation Certificate provide evidence of CPD compliance and completion. These will be sent to delegates on the final day of the conference to allow immediate upload and completion of CPD requirements. The Certficate displays each conference activity and allows delegates to enter their own hours for non face-to-face activites such as readings.
