Call for CPD announcement
In the first half of September the Faculty will be asking 10% of all LFHom’s, DFHom’s, MFHom’s and FFHom’s in the UK and Republic of Ireland to submit their CPD records to the Faculty. The 10% will be selected at random and will be contacted by letter in the first instance.
LFHom’s are expected to complete 12 hours of attendance based and self-directed learning per year averaged out over 3 years. DFHom’s, MFHom’s and FFHom’s are expected to complete 20 hours per year averaged out over 3 years. CPD activities include attending webinars or workshops about homeopathy, attending Faculty training courses or Congress, writing articles about homeopathy or reading about homeopathy.
We believe that it is in the best interests of patients, all Faculty members and homeopathy as a therapy, for the Faculty to have a transparent and robust system of maintenance of high standards. It is for this reason that we take CPD seriously.
If you would like more information about the CPD process please contact Membership & Education Officer Lisa Peacock at lpeacock@facultyofhomeopathy.org.
Please keep an eye out for a letter in the post in September in case you are lucky enough to be selected.
After eight years as the British Homeopathic Association’s communications manager John Burry has now left the organisation, which means he will no longer be the Faculty’s main contact for media inquiries. However, John has agreed to continue as freelance editor of the Faculty’s quarterly newsletter Simile.
Any member who wishes to share with the wider membership news, views, case studies etc. can contact John at jburry@facultyofhomeopathy.org
