Welcome

Here is a brief introduction to Inpractice

Your ePortfolio

This is your ePortfolio; it allows you to easily create a record of the CPD you do for recertification.

It is the sole record used for assessing completion of recertification requirements, therefore it's important that all the CPD activities you do for recertification are recorded here by the end of your CPD cycle.

Entering CPD activities

You can enter new activities and edit your records by going into the individual activity pages in this ePortfolio. Here’s where you will also find more information about each activity.

You are responsible for the accuracy and appropriateness of the entries recorded in your ePortfolio.

Activities can't be double counted; i.e. no single activity counting towards recertification may be recorded in more than one activity category. The one exception is the Essentials Quiz for which you may self-assign credits based on time taken to complete the test.

What you need to do for recertification

During each 12 month CPD cycle you must complete a minimum of:

  1. A professional development plan
  2. 20 hours of continuing medical education
  3. 10 hours of peer review
  4. One medical audit
  5. Four meetings with your nominated collegial relationship provider

In addition to the annual requirements you must complete:

  • The Essentials Quiz in the first year of enrolment in Inpractice and then once every three years
  • Feedback on your practice, both through colleague feedback and patient questionnaires (where practicable) once every three cycles
  • A regular practice review visit when scheduled

Inpractice is based on a 12 month CPD cycle. Your CPD cycle corresponds with you APC renewal date.
