Non Verifiable Hours question

Yep, it does help ~

One last question tho: Are there any other non-verifiable hours that are not reading? Watching Videos, surveys etc??

Thanks

Received an email yesterday :)

"When you undertake reading as CPD, you should record the actual amount of time you spent doing it. Not count every article as 1 hour."

Hope that helps!

I'm afraid I don't know the definite answer to this but I was told by a colleague that this is right but you then have to think about how large the article was and how fast/slow a reader you are so I'm not so sure of it myself. I'm doing to email the GDC to see if they can shed any light!

Hi everyone ~

I'm new to this site so sorry if this is a stupid question....

Regarding mom-verifiable hours; reading articles etc. Do these articles have a standard amount of time that is entered into the CPD log? eg, do all articles count as 0.5 hours or so? I can't seem to find this info anywhere.

I did read the oral cancer screening article in about 10mins but I had a look at the reference links etc. Can I justifiably log it as 0.5 hours?

I'm not sure if this question makes sense haha but any advice on how you guys log CPD articles would be great

Thanks
