Accreditations
Sinéad Hegarty Consultancy is proud to be a member of the CPD Standards Office since 2024, having successfully completed a rigorous assessment process to earn accreditation as a CPD provider. This accreditation distinguishes me as a reputable source of CPD-accredited training, allowing us to issue formal CPD certificates to delegates upon completion of training courses. This ensures that participants can fulfill both mandatory and reflective CPD requirements with confidence.
The accreditation from the CPD Standards Office is significant for professionals across various industries, as it grants access to CPD certificates from an approved provider through a streamlined process. For training providers catering to a diverse cohort of delegates, this accreditation can save time and resources that would otherwise be spent registering with multiple institutes and regulators.
Delegates participating in my CPD-accredited learning activities can be assured of engaging with high-quality, innovative, and informative content that delivers immediately applicable knowledge for their professional environments. Whether or not they have a mandatory CPD record to maintain, undertaking and documenting formal CPD is a commendable way to showcase a commitment to continuous learning and staying updated in their respective fields.
