The accredited professional body shall undertake a monitoring process to ensure—
| (a) | that CPD undertaken is relevant and appropriate to the current and future role of the individual; and |
| (b) | that appropriate records and supporting documentation are kept. |
In order to assess whether BRP's meet the requirements of this policy, monitoring shall take the form of an annual verification of the CPD of a randomly selected sample of all individuals.

| • | retaining appropriate records and supporting documents related to their CPD activities; and |
| • | providing, on request, verifiable evidence to demonstrate their compliance with the requirements ofthe CPD policy. |
As part of this monitoring process the accredited professional bodies can require individuals to provide evidence of relevant learning activities or verification of the competencies they have developed and maintained through their chosen programmes of CPD activities.
On an annual basis, the accredited professional bodies will have to verify whether individuals have met the objective of CPD.

Individuals who are selected as part of the random sample are required to submit to accredited professional body their reporting documentation as proof of attendance of courses, etc., or completion of the recorded activities by the required date to be provided each year, taking into consideration reporting obligations to the CIPC.
