CPD POINTS
« on: April 28, 2013, 01:30:50 AM »
wow, I just had 28 points deleted from my cpd points summary on the Board's cpd points summary. I am now incompetent & cannot re-license even if i wished to do so.........mrs will be loving it when she finds out this months food money should go to "The Board" instead of to keeping us alive....

Is it because the year has reset and you get to do it all over again, yippee...

I have done so many first aid courses thinking of setting up as a G.P. ;)

Apparently according to the "Bickering" and shouting to the "Max" (lol).... over heard lately in the mirrored tower (actual shouting and nutting off apparently, a right paddy by all accounts).......

Well lets just say I got a feeling the gloves will be coming off and the knives are coming out....

Watch your backs guys....the rats are cornered....

Just try to remember when a rat goes for the throat, its really trying to jump over your head just to escape because its scared.

Seriously guys has anyone looked into this and asked the Board for an explanation (I can't because mine are apparently still there......for now).....

For Christ's sake, this is yet another straight forward "job" of the Board..... I had to "ask for the card" three times, its my bloody card ::)

How bad would it appear for an Industry Board, with a Board membership that has an over represented industry group present (against best practice recommendations for such groups being on Industry Boards). This same industry group that provides the biggest provider of CPD courses....

And the points go missing......could it be viewed as perhaps drumming up some new business??

FFS ::)

can i ask when it became mandatory by law to have CPD points as a requirement for licencing .
Is this correct?
my points have been zapped away also , i thought this was a rollover for the new year where they take our money [points]after 2 years of  being on the system, remember the dogs charged us double this year, so maybe we are twice as capable?
another point, if i wish to license for only 3months shouldn't i only have to pay for three of the 12 month fee?
its all a huge rip , getting deeper with a outgoing tide

Try and make sense of this

 
 
Your CPD points requirement for 2014 is: 12 
 
 
   
   
 You need this many points to renew your 1 licence(s) by 31 March 2014.   
   
 Up to  3 of these may be from self-directed learning   
   
Your current points balance is: 74 
This balance: 
   
   
     - includes  57 points transferred from  2012   
   
   
     - does not include any points have gained from self-directed learning which you should enter at relicensing time. 
   
   
 After you renew your  1 licences in  2014 you will have an excess of  17 points. These will be transferred towards your  2014 points balance.   
   
 Disclaimer: the requirement above assumes you intend to renew all licences you currently hold.
I haven't done any "Courses" this licence year so where have the 27 points materialized from :o  and how many do I need for next year because when I went to school 74-12 = 62 not 17 ??? ???

Come work at the board you don't even have to know how to organize a orgy in a brothel  :'( :'(
Unless the moral improves the floggings will continue

Good  shit Integrated.  The Board tell you about all the points you may have but they don't you what trade you need points for. The wankers implemented this CPD shit so they need to get it right or trash it.
