New CPD system: flexibility but at what cost? | Practical Law
Following the Solicitors Regulation Authority’s decision to radically change the continuing professional development system, solicitors will no longer need to complete a minimum of 16 hours of CPD training per year. Under the new system, a solicitor will only need to confirm that he has a system in place to ensure continuing competence, and satisfy the SRA that he has considered how to remain competent and can demonstrate ways that this has been achieved.
