No, if you have been or are on a career break, are unemployed or on maternity/paternity leave, you will need to ensure that you still comply with the CPD regulations and undertake appropriate CPD for your circumstances.
While you should still be completing your CPD each year, we will consider exemptions from the CPD sample review on a case-by-case basis. Please email us detailing your circumstances if you have received a request for your CPD record and are on maternity or paternity leave, on a career break or unemployed.
