Event registration and CPD

Bearing in mind the new CPD recording requirements, and the fact that we enter the number of CPD hours applicable when we enter a new event on the system, shouldn't we tie in registration for an event (and actual attendance) with the career manager record? If I register to attend an event listing 2 hours CPD value, and am ticked off as having attended, it should automatically feed the event title & hours into my Career Manager record.


It would help encourage members to register rather than just turning up on the day. Implementing it would probably blow a few fuses in the IET IT department.


I've just been asked to handwrite & post a CPD certificate, which the recipient will then have to record. Time to get up to date? We are a technology institution, this shouldn't be out of our reach.

    This might be a step too far but if the limitation on improvong Career Manager is a financial one then could it be made open source? This might not be practical but there is certainly a very large pool of talented software engineers within the IET that would volunteer im sure?

    Platforms like Github prove that there is a huge pool of software professionals willing to use there time to collaborate and volunteer time to improve code products.


    Just food for thought.
