The rule in one sentence

Since 1 November 2023 ICAEW members fall into one of three CPD categories requiring 40, 30 or 20 hours per CPD year (1 November–31 October), with a verifiable minimum of 30/20/10 hours in practice or 15/10/5 outside practice, including at least one hour of ethics, confirmed on membership renewal and checked by random sample.

Training and courses become entries on the spot, with the evidence attached.

See your progress all year

Where you stand against the ICAEW requirements, and what's left.

Help with reflection

The coach asks what you learned and how it changes the way you work. You write the answer.

Selected for audit?

Breathe. Here’s your plan, week by week.

ICAEW's monitoring is a random sample each year, handled by its Quality Assurance Department. You are asked to describe your role, so the reviewer can confirm your category, and to share the record you already keep. Nothing is required unless you are asked.

Do I have to use ICAEW's CPD tool?

No. ICAEW has its own tool, but any format is acceptable provided your verifiable activities are evidenced. Keep your record in RiverCPD and download it if you're selected.

Share your link

Every name you bring moves the launch closer.

First on the list are first in when RiverCPD opens for chartered accountants.

CPD lead at ICAEW district societies, ICAEW Faculties, Chartered Institute of Taxation or ICAEW Members in Business communities?
