Registration How to register
Buying more than one bundle One bundle is registered to one account. If you want a second bundle, register it using a different email address, or buy the courses you need individually instead. Single courses Individual courses need no bundle and no subscription. If a course is already inside a bundle you have bought, you do not need to buy it again. Before you buy. Check what you still need for your own reporting period. CPD counts where the subject matter falls within your scope of practice, and completing the hours, reporting them, and watching the expiry date on any on demand video remain the member's responsibility. | Claiming your hours How to claim CPD from CICC
What the College requires
Reporting is the College's process, not ours. Our plain summary of the rules, with section references, is at CPD Requirements for RCICs and RISIAs. Where anything differs, the College's regulation governs. |
Policies and support
What applies to every registration
Access and expiry
Bundle access runs until 2 August 2027. Everything in the bundle, live and on demand, stays open to you until that date.
A single video course is credited for one year from the date the session was presented live.
Proof and records
Your invoice and confirmation stay in your member profile, and the agenda for each session is emailed to you.
A certificate is not issued for every course. CICC asks you to keep proof of attendance or purchase for five years.
Who we are approved by
C.D.E.S. is a CICC Approved CPD Provider and an LSBC Approved CPD Provider.
Approval covers the programme. Deciding what your own reporting period still needs, and reporting it, stays with you.
A few things worth knowing before you buy
- One bundle is registered to one account. A second bundle needs a different email address, or buy the courses you need individually.
- Individual courses need no bundle and no subscription. A course already inside a bundle you hold does not need to be bought again.
- Registering for a live session does not include the video version unless the course page says so.
