Requirements

CPHR Newfoundland & Labrador requires all designation holders to complete 60 CPD Hours within a rolling three-year cycle, with a minimum of 10 hours each year.

Members must also complete at least 3 hours of ethics training within each three-year period.

All CPD activities must link to a minimum of three competency areas from the CPHR Competency Framework, which includes Strategy, Professional Practice, Engagement, Workforce Planning and Talent Management, Labour and Employee Relations, Total Rewards, Learning and Development, Health, Wellness and Safe Workplace, Human Resources Metrics and Financial Management, Strategic and Systems Thinking, Professional and Ethical Practice, Critical Problem-Solving, Change Management, and Communication and Relationship Management.

CPD hours for each calendar year must be submitted by January 15 of the following year.

Accreditation & Course Eligibility

CPHR NL does not require CPD activities to be pre-approved. Activities that have not been pre-approved may still qualify if they contribute to professional development and strengthen the competencies of an HR practitioner.

Acceptable activities may include:

  • University or college credit courses
  • Seminars, workshops, webinars, or conferences (in person or online)
  • Self-directed learning such as readings, roundtables, or formal knowledge-sharing opportunities (up to 5 hours per year)
  • Mentoring, coaching, teaching, or developing new courses or workshops
  • Keynote speaking engagements or guest lectures

Internal company procedure or process training does not qualify.

Reporting, Record-Keeping & Auditing

Members must submit their CPD hours through the online reporting system by the annual January 15 deadline. Each activity must be entered separately, with the date of completion, number of hours, and sufficient information to demonstrate eligibility.

Supporting documentation must be retained for five years and may include:

  • Program descriptions
  • Certificates of completion
  • Receipts
  • Reports or outcomes

CPHR NL randomly audits CPD submissions. If selected, members must provide supporting materials and a copy of their submitted log. Failure to provide adequate documentation may result in loss of the designation.
