Enhance Your CPD Training with CPCAB’s Endorsement

This scheme will benefit training providers by offering recognition and quality assurance for counselling CPD programmes from the UK’s leading awarding organisation specialising in counselling and life coaching training.

The scheme is open to any organisation wanting recognition for their CPD programme or event. The CPD activity can be anything from a half-day workshop up to 30 hours of contact time.

The endorsement process involves:

For a fixed annual fee you can advertise your CPD activity on the CPCAB website and run the endorsed CPD training as many times as you want each year. The CPCAB logo can also be used on your CPD certificates.
