Continuing Professional Development
Continuing professional development (CPD) can be both formal and informal professional development, based on an individual's needs.
To maximise individual potential and retain credibility within the profession it is essential that ADIs maintain high levels of professional competence.
ADIs can make a commitment towards professionalism by keeping up to date and continually seeking to improve their knowledge and expertise.
The DSA is currently working with representative organisations and other stakeholders to develop a structured CPD scheme in preparation for a public consultation on modernising driver training.
