SAICA: It’s CPD declaration season!

SAICA: It’s CPD declaration season! logo

A separate sub-category is included for business rescue practitioners and tax practitioners respectively. The deadline for this is 5 January 2024. 

Another reminder that a once-off declaration is required when you are 70 years or older and not professionally active, aligned to the CPD Policy amendments.

SAICA applies the IFAC International Education Standard (IES) 7 for CPD purposes. 

Remember that learning and development activities constitute much more than just attending a training session. Some examples include (IES 7.A18):

  • Educational programmes or training events (in-person, e-learning, seminars, conferences, etc.)

  • Reflecting on practical experience

  • On-the-job training, performance feedback or guidance from a coach or mentor

  • Becoming a member of professional boards, technical committees, sector activities, information networks, communities of practice, etc.

  • Writing articles, papers, or books of a technical, professional or academic nature

  • Researching subject matter, including reading professional literature or journals

  • Studying for professional examinations

  • Designing, developing, reviewing, or teaching-learning courses, conferences, seminars, or other educational programmes or training events.
