Free · 2 Minutes · 6 Questions · NDPC CPD Guidance Notice

The NDPC now expects every DPO to evidence their development. Could you?

The Guidance Notice on Continuous Professional Development makes DPO competence a maintained, evidenced state — with credit quotas, recognised categories, and audit expectations. Six questions tell you where you stand.

The Readiness Check
QUESTION 01 · THE QUOTA

Do you know your total CPD credit quota and the category minima for your current cycle under the Guidance Notice?

QUESTION 02 · THE REGISTER

Do you maintain a credit register where every activity carries an evidence pointer that actually resolves?

A certificate "somewhere in email" is not a register.
QUESTION 03 · THE PLAN

Was this cycle's CPD plan driven by a documented competency gap assessment — rather than whichever courses appeared?

QUESTION 04 · RECOGNITION

Do you confirm a provider's recognition or accreditation status before enrolling — so every credit you earn actually counts?

QUESTION 05 · GOVERNANCE

Is your CPD status reported in your semi-annual DPO report, with a signed annual declaration countersigned by management?

QUESTION 06 · THE AUDIT TEST

If audited tomorrow, could you produce evidence for every credit you've claimed — each within five minutes?

    Why We Built This

    Competence is now a maintained, evidenced state — not a hiring event.

    Stephen Alaekwe & Co is an NDPC-licensed DPCO and an accredited Training Organization. We sit on the audit side of the table, so we built the check auditors would run — and the tools that pass it. The check is free because a DPO who knows their gaps this year is a client who trusts us for years.
