Nah, you know you are sucked in...
It is good to get these things out, and clear up misunderstandings (especially ones that emanate from me)
The general aspect of this is that CPD can take many forms... and it is an individvuals responsibility. What would be handy (and to some extent exists with the NVQ modules) is a chart through arcaheology... ie I want to be X... therefore the skills I need to by X are a, d, f, and g. focussed training ... Companies can have inhouse skill and training opportunities... or support outsourced.. the point being is that a skilled and motivated workforce is good... CPD is good, if.. if it has a point... the point is....... I hope anyway... ability to move in a particular direction and be valued for it. To keep up with the latest in your field.... and be valued for it. Otherwise I may as well put down reading a book (oh... hold on actually that is CPD... ) )
