The CIOB requires members to assess and fulfil their own CPD needs. Members can therefore choose to study the CPD articles published in CM as a valid part of their personal record of CPD activity. Select your answers below, fill in your contact details then click “submit”. If all five questions are answered correctly, you will be invited to download and print a PDF document confirming your successful completion of the questionnaire. If one or more questions is answered incorrectly, please reread the article and try again, pressing “submit” to resend the amended form. The questionnaire for the May edition will be available on the website until 1 July. We are no longer offering the facility to send questionnaires by fax or post.
