What is CPD accreditation? 

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is about keeping your skills, knowledge and experience at the forefront of your industry throughout your career. CPD certification helps demonstrate your commitment to ongoing learning and career development, shows employers that you have current and relevant skills and allows you to showcase professional practice and professional recognition. CPD certificates are approved by professional bodies and count as employer-recognised learning, making them a valuable addition to your professional profile. 

CPD-accredited training demonstrates that a course meets recognised professional standards and supports ongoing professional learning. By completing one of our accredited courses, you will receive a CPD certificate that provides clear evidence of your development. Our courses are designed to make complex digital technologies accessible, practical and relevant, whether you are just getting started or looking to build confidence in a new area.

We currently have a selection of our most popular CPD-accredited courses available, while we continue working towards full CPD accreditation across our entire training portfolio. 

A clear learning journey from beginner to practitioner 

Our training courses allow you to progress from introductory concepts through to practical application and advanced practice across each subject area. 

At Introductory level, our Beginner’s Guide courses are designed for learners from non-related backgrounds or those with very little prior knowledge. These courses focus on core concepts, terminology and real-world context, providing a strong foundation and building confidence. 

At Learner level, our Practical Guide courses are aimed at those with some theoretical or hands-on experience. They focus on applying knowledge in realistic scenarios and developing practical skills relevant to the workplace. 

For those ready to work more independently, our Independent User or Fundamental courses support learners who already have subject knowledge but require guidance when tackling more complex problems. These courses help deepen understanding and strengthen problem-solving capability. 

At Practitioner level, courses are designed for those actively working in the field. They focus on emerging technologies, new techniques and the development of collaborative, multidisciplinary applications with higher levels of complexity. 

This structured approach allows you to choose the right starting point and build your skills at a pace that suits your experience and career goals.
