There will be a CPD Term tab for each year.

In MyGSL, log in and navigate to 'Manage CPD', then navigate to the 'Track your CPD ' page. Record your CPD activities in the MyGSL portal.

In order to maintain your chartered status, you must continue to record CPD activities throughout your career. There are a range of activities which contribute to your CPD, from attending conferences to developing your business skills.ĬPD doesn’t end once you have achieved Chartership.

You can do this by recording any activities that demonstrate improvement and development of your skills.

It is flexible, to allow a range of activities to be recorded against personal set goals, solely time-based on hours (no longer a weighted points-based system), and made up of six main categories of activities:Īs a Fellow of the Society who is a candidate for Chartership you need to show, through professional practice, education, training and participation within the geological community, that you are maintaining and improving your professional competency. The CPD scheme is a recursive, reflective system of: plan → act → reflect based on experiential learning. Undertaking and recording CPD is also very strongly advised for other Fellows who are professionally active About the scheme As well as broadening your knowledge, CPD gives assurance to your employers, and to society in general, that you are professionally competent.ĬPD planning and recording is mandatory for all Chartered Fellows (for Fellows with CGeol and, or, CSci) and for Fellows aspiring to Chartership. 2.9 MAGMA Slide 4 4 Crystallization IGNEOUS Slide 5 5 MAGMA IGNEOUS Plutonic Crystallization Slide 6 6 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic Crystallization Slide 7 7 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic Uplift Crystallization Weathering Slide 8 8 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT Uplift Crystallization Weathering SEDIMENT Slide 9 9 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY Uplift Crystallization Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Slide 10 10 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY Uplift Crystallization Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Slide 11 11 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY METAMORPHIC Uplift Burial Increased P&T Crystallization Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Slide 12 12 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY METAMORPHIC Uplift Burial Increased P&T Melting Crystallization Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Can you see any shortcuts?
