CPD Tracking Software for Staff Development Records
Keep CPD records, evidence and review status connected to staff development activity so managers can see what has been recorded and what still needs attention.
Real SkillProof product workflow shown with safe demo data.
Problem
Why this is hard to manage manually.
CPD can become a loose collection of notes, certificates and declarations unless it is linked to staff records and review actions.
CPD logs are often owned by individuals with little manager visibility.
Evidence is stored separately from the CPD activity it supports.
Professional development actions can be missed after reviews.
Reporting takes time because CPD status is not connected to the wider workforce record.
