What is CPD?
CPD is about improving skills and knowledge, ensuring you remain current and effective as a Lean Six Sigma professional. It’s relevant throughout your career – whether you are new to Lean Six Sigma or an experienced professional wishing to keep abreast of the latest trends and techniques.
Simply record all the learning and development activities that you undertake over the membership year; whether completed through other organisations, online, or even activities you’ve done on your own like reading a new book on lean six sigma methodologies.
It proves to current and potential employers that you are serious about maintaining your knowledge and skills in lean six sigma.
