CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM
(CPD) SCHEME
The Security Institute is committed to raising standards in the
security profession and encourages everyone to think about
how they can continue to develop their knowledge and skills.
Our CPD Toolkit is open to members and non-members to use and is an essential way to track what you learn about security and
management over the course of a year; giving participants a competitive edge over other practitioners, enhancing confidence
and competence. We challenge you to achieve a minimum of 36 points each year.CPD is compulsory for Chartered Security
Professionals (CSyP) and Security Institute Fellows (FSyI) – and having at least two years of completed CPD is essential for any
Security Institute member who wants to upgrade to Fellow grade membership. All sorts of development activities are recognised,
including events run by our CPD partners, which score double points. Look out for our CPD logo.
Why Should I Track My CPD?

• Achieve recognition, with your CPD Certificate of completion once reaching 36 points
• Improve your confidence to achieve your goals
• Identify your competencies to become more employable
