Audit

Selection of CPD logs for the purposes of auditing is made on a random basis. You must keep your supporting materials and copy of your submitted log for a period of 36 months. Three per cent (3%) of all submitted CPD logs each year are selected for audit and CPHRs must then provide supporting documents for the activities submitted.
