The association believes that Counsellors will commit themselves to meeting the requirement for continuing education in the belief that both they and their clients will reap the benefits of ongoing learning, continuous personal and professional development. The proposals for CPD are consistent with the philosophy of lifelong learning and build on adult education principles. It is currently implemented by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) as per registration of PB’s.
CPD programme for 2014
We are very excited to announce that from this year our CPD programme is implemented and managed by CROWA, a SETA accredited provider with HWSETA accredited assessors and moderators.
The following options are available to obtain the required minimum CPD point for 2014: Option 1: Residential CPD sessions
Synergetica Campus (close to Cullinan just outside Pretoria in Gauteng)
These sessions will be held at our Synergetica campus where the offices of the CCSA and NHA are also situated. Counsellors can attend their CPD point sessions at this venue on scheduled dates (see timetable below). These sessions will include the presentation, PowerPoint’s (where applicable), study material, certification as well as light
refreshments/lunch. Prescribed assignments will be covered during these sessions. Bookings, at least ONE week in advance is essential.
Outside Gauteng (other provinces)
Residential sessions outside Gauteng are available on special request. However, it will incur additional costs (of R150/person/CPD topic) to absorb travel and accommodation expenses for CPD presenter(s). The minimum attendance requirement is then at least 30 candidates to attend any single session outside Gauteng.
Note: All residential CPD sessions are FIVE (5) hours each. An example of a generic programme is as follows:
08h30-09h00: Registration
09h00-13h00: CPD Presentation (More time than 3 hours is allocated to allow for interaction, questions and a tea break)
13h00-14h00: Lunch and networking
14h00-14h45: Final questions, CPD session feedback and assessment
14h45-15h00: Certification and Closing
Option 2: CDP per Correspondence
To accommodate counsellors and make CPD’s cost and time effective to all, those who cannot attend sessions can apply for the CPD correspondence option. Hence material will be forwarded to them on the same date when the specific CPD sessions (during the first cycle/semester) commence for those CPD points they are requesting to register for. However to earn their CPD points counsellor
s will have to complete assignments based on the CPD topic and must obtain a mark of 65% before CPD points will be allocated for the specific topic.
Note:
A combination of residential and/or correspondence are allowed, as long as the
minimum requirements for CPD (as mentioned above) are met.
The closing date for ALL CPD assignments to be completed and handed in is
30 November 2014.
The final issuing date for all CPD certificates (issued by the CCSA) successfully completed via correspondence will be 15 January 2015.
Certificates will be sent via post and recorded against your profile.
Topics for 2014
We offer a series of 5 CPD topics spread over two cycles/semesters per year. It will be repeated duri
ng the second semester (only for residential sessions) of this year to allow everyone a fair chance to obtain the minimum requirement of CPD’s as per requirements. However, we urge candidates to register for the correspondence option during the first cycle to allow for assessment/marking of assignments and the timeously issuing for CDP Certificates before the 2014 CPD cycle lapse. The following dates will apply for CPD registrations and assignments during the first cycle:
(1) Closing date for assignments: 30 June 2014 (ONLY for first cycle).
(2) Issuing date for CDP certificates: 15 October 2014 (ONLY for first cycle).

(1) SACSSP (South African Council for Social Sciences Practitioners); or
(2) HPCSA (Health Professionals Council for South Africa).
Should a counsellor attend such sessions, they can forward the certificates for consideration and acc
reditation purposes. An administration fee of R45 will be levied per CPD certificate completed elsewhere.
Should you wish to opt for accreditation of CPD points send us an e-mail and request the necessary documentation in this regard.
The closing date for applications for the accreditation of SACSSP/HPCS CDP points is 31 October 2014.
