Throughout your working life, undertaking continuing professional development (CPD) is an important way to expand your knowledge, maintain up-to-date technical skills, and progress your HVAC&R building services career.

To ensure engineers holding APER status are of the highest standard of contemporary practice, we require evidence of relevant CPD activity.

CPD activity is RECOMMENDED for all AIRAH members
and MANDATORY for all APER applicants/holders.

This is a vital pillar of an APER accreditation and our CPD requirements were established to meet the expectations of government, profession, industry, and public.

Importantly, there are conditions attached to each variety of CPD.

Tracking your CPD:

• We provide an easy-to-use online diary through the membership portal. Applicants can use this to collate their CPD activities before uploading it in their APER application.

• A CPD record template is also available to download from the APER Resources page.
