CII CPD event accreditation
Overview
CPD event accreditation provides formal recognition of the quality of seminars, presentations, lectures and conferences that cover relevant issues in general insurance or financial services. Events may be ‘classroom-based’ or virtual.
This assists in demonstrating the importance of your event in the development of technical knowledge and competence. It may be awarded where a formal CII review concludes that the event’s content is insurance or financial services related and of a sufficiently high standard to contribute to CII members’ continuing professional development. Events must be free of product bias in order to be eligible for formal recognition.
CII accreditation is not a requirement for participants to claim CII cpd credits. It does, however, provide formal recognition, valuable external benchmarking and tangible business benefits. For details of the CII cpd scheme please visit www.cpd.cii.co.uk.

Benefits of CII CPD event accreditation
CPD event accreditation will:
- Assist in demonstrating the value of attending your event to potential delegates
- Add gravitas from formal endorsement of the event by the CII
- Allow you to use the 'CII accredited event' logo for event branding and literature
- Allow you to use 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’.
On successful achievement of CPD event accreditation the CII offers the event organiser:
- 'CII accredited event' logo for use on branding and literature

Quality assurance
CII’s quality assurance process requires that you provide a copy of delegate feedback.
Please note that occasionally CII sends an assessor to an event for which you will receive prior notification.
Once the event has taken place please provide a copy of any documentation provided to delegates.
Information for event organisers
The CII can recognise events via CPD event accreditation in different ways.
- Formal recognition of the event’s quality.
- Formal recognition of the event’s quality together with support in promoting awareness of your event where there is a mutual benefit.
NB If you are not seeking formal recognition of the event’s quality but would like to know whether the event entitles participants to claim CII cpd credits please visit www.cii.cpd.co.uk.
In order to determine the most appropriate approach please refer to the options below.
Registering Continuing Professional Development
