What is Competency Type?

Core competencies are those that reflect the primary skills required of all surveyors on a particular pathway or specialism. Optional competencies reflect the fact that not all surveyors will be operating in identical roles and different specialisms and expertise may be required, depending on the role and so a surveyor may be competent in some, but not necessarily all optional competencies. Overall, core and optional competencies should reflect the work surveyors do in their day-to-day environment driven by the needs of employers and/or clients. Please note that it is not intended that you should cover all competencies in your pathway in a given CPD year. It is more appropriate to focus on a small number of competencies where you have identified a potential development or learning need. Dispute Resolution Panel members must undertake and record an additional 10 hours per calendar year, specifically related to the field of dispute resolution.

What is Competency Type?

You must ensure your CPD is relevant to your practice as a Quantity Surveyor and/or Building Surveyor, including the manner in which the CPD may improve your service delivery and benefit your service users.

When approaching CPD activities, the Registration Body expects registrants to form their own professional judgement as the best way of assuring that they are meeting the CPD standards and making a meaningful contribution to the development of their knowledge, competencies, and skills. Hover over the words for more detail:

• Core competencies
• Optional competencies
• Ethics
• Sustainability
• Other Competencies
• Other (not defined above) specialised relevant CPD

CPD is not only attainable through formal courses but any activity from which you learn and develop. A list of possible examples of CPD activities are provided at Appendix 2 of the Guidelines for Registrants. This list is not exhaustive and there may be other activities not listed that still help you to learn and develop and that can be part of your CPD.
