Participating in forum discussions and reading or viewing content (such as news stories) on www.vetsurgeon.org counts towards the average 35 hours of documented Continuing Professional Development you are required to undertake each year.

To count towards your CPD requirement, your activities must be part of a documented process of appraisal and development. In other words, you must keep a record of your activity and how it has contributed to your professional development.

VetSurgeon.org 'Claim CPD' allows you to document what you've learned via the site, generate a certificate, and claim it towards your annual CPD requirement.
