Applying for CPD Accreditation

To apply for NIBA CPD Accreditation, you must lodge your program on the NIBA CPD register. NIBA College’s new CPD Register is for members and training providers across the industry.

PLEASE NOTE: Applications must be completed by the training provider, not by attendees.  The form  must be lodged on the register with in 3 months of the session date, if it is a series the application must be made with in 3 months of the first session.After this time NIBA will not consider a session for accreditation.

Once your session has been accredited, you will receive notification via email with a link to your session on the register and a CPD code. You will need to provide each participant with;

  • an assessment or signed attendance list to verify their attendance and successfully completion of the training
  • a formal record of attendance/completion with the;
    • ­name of attendee
    • title of training
    • date of attendance/completion
