Med CPD – Premium

Overview

Med CPD Premium brings together the tools you need to manage your continuing professional development in one place.

Instead of juggling spreadsheets, notes, certificates, bookmarks, and browser tabs, Premium helps you organise your learning, track your progress, and build a clearer record of your professional development throughout the year.

Whether you’re planning your learning, researching clinical questions, or preparing for your annual CPD requirements, Premium is designed to support your ongoing professional development.

What is Med CPD Premium?

A free Med CPD account gives you access to Australia’s growing directory of CPD opportunities, education and professional learning resources.

Premium builds on the free Med CPD experience by providing additional tools to help you plan, organise, track and reflect on your professional development.

Premium is particularly useful if you want to keep your learning activities and CPD records together rather than managing them across multiple systems.

What’s Included with Premium?

Premium includes a growing suite of tools designed to support your CPD journey.

These include:
– Personalised CPD Log and plan
– Auto CPD Log
– Downloadable CPD records
– Personalised Learning plans
– Event reminders
– Ongoing Premium feature updates

As Med CPD continues to evolve, new Premium features will be added to further support healthcare professionals.

Auto CPD Log

Auto CPD Log helps you capture the learning you already do through everyday research.

Search clinical questions, guidelines, research topics and other professional learning needs within Med CPD, while Auto CPD Log records your learning activity as you go.

Auto CPD Log can capture:
– Your search history
– Topics explored
– Learning time
– Saved resources

This creates a searchable record of your self-directed learning, making it easier to revisit what you have explored, reflect on your learning and keep track of your professional development over time.

Your CPD Log

Your CPD Log gives you a structured place to plan, track and reflect on your professional development throughout the year.

Use it to set your professional development goals, build your annual plan, record learning activities as they occur and reflect on what you have learned and how it applies to your practice.

For each activity, you can add your reflections and upload supporting evidence, keeping your CPD records organised in one place as the year progresses.

At the end of the year, your completed CPD Log can be downloaded as a consolidated record of your professional development, making annual review, reflection and reporting much easier.

Professional development is most valuable when it’s intentional.

Premium allows you to build a personal learning plan based on:
– Areas you want to improve
– Skills you’d like to develop
– Topics you’re curious about
– Career goals
– CPD requirements

Your learning plan can help guide the education you choose throughout the year instead of selecting activities at random.

Rather than simply collecting CPD activities, you can create a clearer connection between:

What you want to learn → What you do to learn it → What you learned → How it applies to your professional development.

Keep Everything in One Place

Many healthcare professionals manage CPD using:
– Browser bookmarks
– Emails and folders
– Spreadsheets
– Notes apps
– Printed certificates
– Calendar reminders

Premium helps reduce that fragmentation by bringing your learning tools together within Med CPD.

You can plan your learning, discover education, research topics, save resources and maintain your CPD records within the same platform.

Who is Premium For?

Premium may be valuable if you:
– Keep their CPD records organised
– Plan their professional development throughout the year
– Track learning activities as they happen
– Record self-directed learning
– Research clinical and professional topics
– Set personal learning goals
– Save useful education and resources
– Review their learning progress
– Reduce the administration involved in managing CPD

Premium can be particularly useful for AHPRA-registered healthcare professionals who want a central place to organise their CPD activities and supporting records.

Getting the Most from Premium

To get the most value from your subscription:

Research through Auto CPD Log
When a clinical or professional question comes up, use the Auto CPD Log to explore the topic within Med CPD.

Your eligible activity can then be captured as you learn, rather than relying on your memory later.

Plan and Review Your Activity Monthly
Checking your learning regularly is easier than trying to reconstruct it later.

Build a Learning Plan
Search (link to the search guide) through the Med CPD catalog and bookmark all of the courses and events that match your reflected current learning goals and career aspiration.

Save Valuable Resources
Keep useful articles and guidelines organised for future reference.

Update Your CPD Log Regularly
Recording activities throughout the year saves time when preparing reflections and reports.
