How to become a CPD Provider

How to become a CPD Provider

It is important that you take a close look at our CPD Approval & Assessment Guide https://ausactive.org.au/members/learning-development/become-a-cec-provider/ before you apply for CPDs, as it includes all the criteria that you are required to meet in order for you program to be approved.

Use the AUSactive CPD Approval & Assessment Guide and the CPD Quality Self-Assessment Checklist to ensure your program meets the assessment requirements and approval criteria.

The CPD Approval and Assessment Guide includes information about:

  • How CPDs are allocated
  • The assessment process and criteria for CPD Approval
  • How to apply for CPD Approval
  • How to renew your CPD Approval
We also recommend that you review the AUSactive Scope of Practice and ensure your program aligns appropriately. This is particularly important where program topics include nutritional advice, rehabilitation, injury and chronic illness/ disease.

The costs involved include $500 per year for CPD provider registration, $495 per program which covers assessment of content and administration fees, and $360 every 2 years for program renewal. Programs are approved for a 2-year period; however, provider registration is every year and must remain current during the program approval period. If you have any further questions, please email us at cecsupport@ausactive.org.au
