All practising barristers are subject to CPD in 2010. If you have not received details about your CPD obligations or are unsure of them, please contact Rachel Reeves, Training Compliance Assistant on 020 7611 1444 or e-mail rreeves@barstandardsboard.org.uk
If you have any queries regarding courses and accreditation, please contact Liz Prats, CPD Officer on 020 7611 1444 or email lprats@barstandardsboard.org.uk
If you have already completed your 2010 CPD hours, practitioners are encouraged to return their record card to our offices before the deadline date of the 31 January 2011. Some practitioners still appear to have old record cards with the 3 Bedford Row and 2-3 Cursitor Street addresses on, as we moved from these premises nearly 6 years ago, we no longer receive post from there. If you would like an up to
date record card, please email Rachel Reeves or visit our website at www.barstandardsboard.org.uk under Practising Certificate and CPD/Forms and Guidance.
Practitioners are reminded that the CPD year operates on a calendar year basis and any practitioner who completes CPD hours for the 2010 requirement in 2011 will have to apply for an extension of time through the Qualifications Committee.
