Are you a CPD provider with courses, consultancy or resources for teachers and schools in England? Then this message is for you!
Dear CPD provider,
The National CPD Database is shutting down on 31st March 2012.
GoodCPDGuide is a non-profit organisation running a new, free national CPD database for use by all providers and teachers. It was set up because we feel that the ability for teachers to find quality CPD is too important to lose. We want to continue the great work of the TDA while striving to improve and further develop this important public service.
We are, therefore, able to list all your CPD courses and services absolutely free. We ensure that teachers trust our services through strict quality assurance, including:
- Community reviews where users rate courses on impact on professional practice,
- A strict code of conduct that ensures all providers commit to following best practice guidelines,
- A GoodCPDGuide Quality Rating system giving certified ratings after inspection by CUREE.
Having launched at a National College event in Westminster two weeks ago, we already feature over 300 courses from big name providers including the Institute of Physics (IoP), National Association for the Teaching of English (NATE), the ASCL union’s MAPS CPD service, Creative Education Ltd. and the University of Hertfordshire as well as many smaller consultancies and training providers, with more appearing every day. Our service is available to every school and every teacher.
So why choose to list with GoodCPDGuide?
- It is completely free. No registration costs, no annual fees, no referral fees or commission.
- Teachers trust our site. We pride ourselves on leading the way with quality assurance.
- We offer a bulk upload facility which uses exactly the same format as the TDA database, so there is no duplication of work.
- Our review system is open and transparent and you can respond publicly to every review.
You can start listing today. Simply sign up for the site, click on “Become a Provider”, agree to abide by the terms and code of practice, and start entering your courses straight away. Alternatively if you have any questions you can contact me at [email protected].
I look forward to seeing your courses listed on England’s new free national CPD database!
Kind regards,
