Continuing Professional Development
Professional development is a fundamental part of our career, it is important to ensure that your knowledge and skills are up-to-date with current practices. Land condition is a wide-ranging discipline and is evolving, expanding and continuously developing.
Once registered as a SiLC, it is important to develop and grow your professional knowledge and skills by conducting Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
Those individuals on the SiLC register should maintain their credibility and are able to demonstrate that their knowledge, understanding and skills are maintained, developed and updated.
Demonstration of CPD is a requirement of the SiLC Code of Practice. It is a useful tool to use to identify and prioritise future development needs for the following year and evaluate achievements made in the previous year.
Upon completion of the application process, SiLCs will be required to sign a declaration to state that they will comply with their professional body requirements regarding CPD (see Appendix 5 of the candidate guide).
