CII CPD event accreditation

Overview


CPD accredited events are conferences or seminars which are delivered by experts and open to the public. These are not related to specific qualifications and do not normally include a formal assessment of the learning.

CPD event accreditation helps you demonstrate the importance of your event to the development of technical knowledge and competence. It is a formal quality kite-mark and evidence of achieving a set standard. The accreditation can be awarded where a review finds that the event's content is related to insurance or financial services and of a sufficiently high standard to contribute to CII members' CPD. Events must be free of product bias.

CII accreditation is not a requirement for participants to claim CPD credits under the CII CPD scheme. However, it does provide formal recognition, valuable external benchmarking, tangible business benefits and allows providers to advertise their event as attracting CII CPD credits for attendees.

Benefits of CII CPD event accreditation

CPD event accreditation will:

  • Allow you to use the 'CII accredited event' logo for event branding and literature
  • Assist in demonstrating the value of attending your event to potential delegates
  • Add gravitas from formal endorsement of the event by the CII

On achievement of CPD event accreditation we will provide you with:

  • The option of adding the event details to the CII website
  • Use of the CII formal accreditation endorsement wording: 'This event has been accredited by the CII and can be included as part of your CII CPD requirement should you consider it relevant to your professional development needs'.

Most accredited training comes under the CPD accreditation banner. Organisations that want accreditation for anything other than an event, should refer to CPD accreditation

If you are not looking for formal recognition of the event's quality but would like to know whether the event entitles participants to claim CII CPD credits read more about the CII CPD scheme

CPD event accreditation standards

You will need to be able to confirm that your event meets the CII CPD Accreditation standards.

Quality assurance

Our quality assurance process requires that you provide a copy of delegate feedback and copies of any documentation provided to delegates. This can be provided after the event has taken place.

Please note that we may occasionally send an assessor to an event for which you will receive prior notification.

Types of accreditation

There are two types of accreditation available for your events:

  • Annual accreditation licence - this gives holders the flexibility to apply accreditation to all the appropriate courses they provide in a year - £1500
  • Single event accreditation - £750

Registering Continuing Professional Development

Once the event has taken place, CII members who attended can register their CPD credits online via the CPD website.
