Structured CPD, self-certified.
We are careful with words. EUCPD courses are structured CPD, self-certified to a published methodology — not “accredited by” any regulator or body. Here is exactly what that means, and how a CPD hour is counted.
The position
Self-certified, and said plainly.
What we claim — and what we don’t.
Our courses are structured CPD, self-certified to a published methodology. We do not claim to be “approved”, “endorsed” or “accredited by” CySEC, ICPAC, the Cyprus Bar Association, the FCA or any other body.
Most professional bodies accept relevant structured CPD from external providers at the member’s discretion. Whether a given course counts toward your requirement is a matter for your body — confirm with yours if you are unsure.
Why the honest line is the strong one.
A specialist audience reads an overclaim instantly. Stating the position accurately — self-certified, to a method you can inspect — is more credible than a badge we haven’t earned, and it travels across every jurisdiction we serve.
How a CPD hour is counted
To a published, versioned methodology.
One CPD hour represents 60 minutes of delivered, structured instructional time — measured, not estimated. Breaks, administration and optional further reading are excluded. The methodology is versioned and printed on every certificate, so a reviewer can check what a number means.
Recognition by jurisdiction
Acceptance rests with your body.
Recognition in Cyprus
CySEC certified persons complete 10 hours (Basic), 15 (Advanced) or 10 (AML) a year, up to 20 for combined certifications; ICPAC members complete 40 units, at least 21 verifiable. Relevant structured CPD may generally count toward these, at the body’s discretion. Cyprus detail →
Recognition in the EU & UK
EU and UK bodies generally accept relevant external structured CPD at the member’s discretion. Courses address named instruments; a jurisdiction is tagged only where the course teaches that jurisdiction’s law. EU detail →
