CPD Requirements and Online Reporting System (ORS)

For CPHRs that have not submitted the minimum hours for 2020 CPD, the deadline is
TODAY, JANUARY 15, 2021

• Annual 2020 CPD  (Jan. 1 - Dec. 31, 2020) must be entered by Jan. 15, 2021 to avoid a $50 late fee.
• There is a minimum requirement of 10 CPD hours annually and a minimum of 60 CPD hours and two categories during a three-year rolling period. Keep in mind that 10 CPD hours per year is not going to get the required 60 CPD hours in the three-year rolling calendar. 
• There is no final "submit" button to hit once you are done entering all your hours for the year. 
• Complete the declaration once you are done entering hours for the year. This can be found in the menu to the left of your name, or on the Dashboard under "Enter Hours".
• For some of you, this is your second year of the three-year rolling calendar and entering CPD hours online.
• For those that received the designation in 2019, this will be your first time entering, and for those that received the designation in 2020, you do not need to submit CPD until 2021.  
• In the event you are audited, keep track of the documentation to verify the hours entered into the Online Reporting System. 
• On the Dashboard, only your last four entries will show. To view all entries, click on "View Full History." If you are running reports for certain time periods, remember to adjust the start and end dates accordingly. 

Information regarding the CPD requirements, the online reporting system and the webinar recording can be found here.

Information regarding leave of absence can be found here. Specific dates outlining the leave must be included in the letter from the employer.

If you are not submitting your CPD hours, please send an email notifying Holly Guran, Professional Standards Manager, at hguran@cphrsk.ca as this will impact your CPHR professional designation.

Monthly email reminders have been sent to CPHRs regarding 2020 CPD hours since September along with information posted in the HR Weeekly newsletter.

After reviewing all the information, if you have questions, please contact Holly Guran, Professional Standards Manager at hguran@cphrsk.ca.
