What is CPD?
CPD (Continuing Professional Development) is a term used to describe learning activities that can help you to develop new skills and enhance your career prospects.
Established in 1996, the CPD Certification Service is a CPD-oriented accreditation body that oversees the accreditation of thousands of professional skills and training courses from industry-leading organizations and educational institutions around the world.
What is accreditation?
Accreditation is a formal and intensive review conducted to ensure that an educational course is capable of delivering high-quality and effective training.
The accreditation process involves a full review of our courses, learning platform, assessments, and accessibility features to ensure that they achieve their intended purpose – providing a thorough understanding of how to teach the English language to non-native students – and that we have systems in place to enable our students to study with ease.
CPD and World TESOL Academy:
We’re proud that all of our teacher training courses have been accredited by both the CPD Certification Service and ACCREDITAT.
How can you tell if an organization is truly accredited by CPD?
If an organization is truly accredited by CPD, they’ll be able to display valid accreditation certificates on their website. These must be renewed yearly after proving that a satisfactory standard has been maintained.
Our accreditation certificates can be found on this page here: World TESOL Academy Accreditations.
You can also view our profile at the CPD Certification Service website here: World TESOL Academy – CPD Profile.
CPD points:
When you complete CPD-accredited courses, you’ll usually earn “CPD Points” or “CPD hours”. These are seen as transferable credits that can show employers the amount of additional career-based training that you’ve been through.
Some organizations even require workers to complete a certain number of CPD hours per year to help them continually improve and build new skills.
Additional CPD confirmation certificate:
When completing your CPD-certified course at World TESOL Academy, you’ll also have the ability to request an additional certificate from CPD Certification Service that can be used to further demonstrate the institutional backing behind your course. Soft copies of these certificates can be requested free of charge through the CPD Certification Service website.
You can see a sample here: Additional CPD Certification Service certificate.
If you have completed any of our accredited courses you’ll be eligible to request your CPD certificate. To submit your request simply reach out to a tutor on our site or send a message through our contact page here: https://www.worldtesolacademy.com/contact
