CALCULATING AND ROUNDING CPD HOURS

  1. If the activity is approved for accreditation, calculate ”the maximum number of hours the activity is accredited for”.
  2.  All educational time should be included in this calculation.
  3. Health breaks, meals, social activities or any activities that do not meet the educational or ethical CPD activity accreditation standards should not be included in this calculation.
  4. If partial hours are assigned, please round up to the nearest 0.25 hours according to the following guide:
