The College uses Zoom to deliver its webinars. We highly recommend joining using the installed Zoom Workplace app on PC and Mac, or the Zoom app on Android or iPhone/iPad. If you join using the “Join from your browser” link on PC/Mac, your attendance may not be recorded, and CPD hours may not be awarded.
CPD Certificates
Webinars that qualify for CPD hours will have this information clearly stated in their descriptions on the College website.
To be eligible to receive CPD hours for webinar attendance you must connect for the full duration of the webinar AND complete the feedback survey.
You have 7 days from the end of the webinar to complete the survey. If you miss the survey submission deadline, it will not be possible to issue you with a CPD certificate.
When a webinar ends the feedback survey should open in your web browser. You will also find a link to the feedback survey in the “Thank you for attending” email which will be sent to the email address you used to register. This email is sent automatically 24 hours after the webinar has ended.
When you are asked to enter your email address on the feedback survey this must match the email address you used to register for the webinar. If the email address does not match, we will not be able to confirm your attendance and send you a CPD certificate.
Your CPD certificate will be sent to the email address you used to register for the webinar. CPD certificates are sent as PDF documents.
You should receive your CPD certificate within 3 weeks of attending a webinar, although during busy times it may take longer. If you have not received your certificate within four weeks of attending a webinar, please email us at webinars@rcsed.ac.uk.
You will find the number of CPD hours awarded for a particular webinar within its description on the College website. One CPD hour is awarded per hour of educational content.
