What is CPD / PDH
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) or a Professional Development Hours (PDH) is a strategic framework designed to support employees in their career growth within an organisation. It sets out clear, actionable steps for skill development and goal achievement, ensuring progress aligns with both individual aspirations and company objectives.
CPD / PDH gives employees a structured pathway to enhance their skills and advance their careers, encouraging ownership of personal development and long-term goals. For organisations, CPD / PDH delivers tangible benefits by improving performance, boosting engagement, and strengthening retention.
