Group webinar viewing is a great way to create a constructive training session! 20:20 Innovation will track the webinar progress of the individual(s) whose account is used to facilitate the group viewing. For all other individuals (and for any additional time spent in group discussion on the topic of the webinar), this should be recorded by them as Other CPD. This can be done in ‘My other training’, with the webinar name and duration (which can include any group discussions after / during the webinar). This can be marked as verified if the firm has maintained an attendance list of who watched the webinar.

Simply book on the webinar using the ‘Book Training’ button in your Dashboard and follow through the booking process. You will then be able to access a copy of the recording in ‘My 20:20 Innovation training’.

In ‘My other training’ you will initially see a data notice to confirm that the other training you enter will be visible to your firm’s ‘training coordinators’ and administrators and used to ensure firm-wide CPD compliance. Once you’ve agreed to this, you will have the functionality to record other training across a wide spectrum of areas and search and report on this for your own future reference and CPD records. You are also able to mark training as ‘verified’ if this is the case and make a note of where you’ve saved the evidence of this.

Do remember that your CPD records need to include your initial planning and your reflections on the effectiveness of the training.

To further assist with this, 20:20 Innovation members have access to Training Plan Resources. This includes a Training Plan and CPD Record where frequently required CPD processes can be documented. This includes:

• Planning your training for the year ahead
• Reflecting on the training received and whether it has effectively met the training need identified
• Space to record your 20:20 Innovation CPD hours (as exported from ‘My 20:20 Innovation Training’)
• Space to record other CPD obtained e.g. from other providers or from technical reading or meeting attendance (as exported from ‘My other training’ if in use).

The Training Plan and CPD Record also includes links to the latest CPD guidance from a wide range of professional bodies.

Unless otherwise prescribed by your professional body (where applicable) and/or your employer, you can document your reflections in a range of ways. To assist with this, 20:20 Innovation members have access to Training Plan Resources. This includes a Training Plan and CPD Record where frequently required CPD processes can be documented. This includes space to reflect on training booked and undertaken. There is also a CPD Reflection Tool for individuals who wish to record their reflections on a webinar-by-webinar basis.
