Will the Law Society audit CPD hours? What records must I keep?

Members must retain records of their CPD activities for seven (7) years.

Documentation must confirm:

      • the date of the activity;
      • the type of activity;
      • the subject matter;
      • the duration (number of hours); and
      • any other relevant details, depending on the activity type.

Acceptable documentation includes receipts, certificates of completion, attendance records, agendas, and course outlines.
