I have just obtained my Full Registration this year, but I am unable to accumulate CPD points for next year. Since I obtained my Full Registration in August, I have missed the CPD cycle to collect points for renewal of APC for the following year.
- If you have acquired your Full Registration for the first time, your CPD point requirement will be reduced to zero (0) for the first two years, that is, for the year you receive your Full Registration and the subsequent year. However, RMPs should be reminded that they must start collecting CPD points from 1st July of the year they obtain their Full Registration.
- For example, if a RMP obtains Full Registration in 2024, they will receive a reduction of CPD requirement for APC 2024 and 2025. In order to renew their APC for 2026, the RMP must accumulate CPD points during the CPD cycle from 1st July 2024 until 30th June 2025, that is, they must start accumulating CPD points during the year they acquire the Full Registration.
