CPD points are allocated based on time, with one hour of presentation equating to one CPD point. ESLA does not issue certificates of attendance or maintain records on individual CPD points. It remains the responsibility of each attendee to track and record their own CPD activities. In the event of an audit, ESLA can provide confirmation of your attendance where records are available. ESLA does not determine the CPD category applicable to your attendance. Attendees are responsible for assessing and allocating their CPD points in accordance with the relevant categories and requirements.
