The Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Program has a new category available to certificants. Category D3 for Completion of Reflective Practice is available for up to 5 CEU credits over 5 years (1 credit per reflective practice activity completed).
Reflective practice is ongoing and is based around 4-stages:
- Experience (doing/having an experience)
- Reflective Observation (reflecting on the experience)
- Hypothesising about the meaning of our experiences (learning from the experience)
- Active Experimentation (planning/trying out what you have learned)
To claim reflective practice for your CPD, you will complete a template regarding an experience/event/incident that has impacted you. Some examples of types of experiences that could be used for reflective practice include:
- Challenging situation in the workplace
- Delivering a presentation for the first time
- Managing people
- OHS situation that occurred
The online template is available in the My CPD Portfolio area of Clarus once you choose Category D3. You will complete the template and submit it once you have completed a reflective exercise - there are no additional documents to upload.
To learn more, watch the information video (below), review the CPD Guide or visit your My CPD Portfolio in your profile to review the template.
