Open CPD accreditation explained

A short overview of how CPD accreditation works when you run it yourself. It covers what you set up once, what happens each time you issue a certificate, and who the platform is built for.

What this covers

  • No approval queue and no accreditation fee before you can issue anything.
  • You set up a company and course profile once, without uploading course materials.
  • Learning aims, skills and outcomes are what bring a course up to CPD standard.
  • Every certificate carries a verification link and a digital badge for LinkedIn.
  • Built for training providers, event and webinar hosts, e-learning platforms and corporate learning teams.
