What is the Development Activities feature in People Development?
The feature previously known as CPD Activities in People Development is being renamed to Development Activities.
Development Activities provides a unified way to record professional learning in People Development.
-
The Professional Learning you complete, either in The National College or recorded in your People Development account, will now sync automatically across both platforms.
- Content completed in The National College will automatically complete the related Development Activity in People Development.
- When CPD is completed either in People Development, or through The National College, a record is created in your Learning Record in The National College.
- This means all completed CPD will now be visible in one place, improving accuracy of reporting and reducing workload.
When a Development Activity is created, the system will automatically create a task in the Task List for all relevant users.
-
No manual task creation needed.
- If CPD approval is required, a task will automatically be created in the Task List of all corresponding Line Managers and/or Development Team members.
- Carrying out the required action will mark the task as Done automatically.
Multi-user Approval reduces workload for Managers.
-
For settings that require CPD requests to be approved, when one Line Manager agrees or denies the CPD request, the task is marked as complete for all Line Managers.
-
The same applies across Development Team (previously CPD Team) members and Partnership users.
