Continuing professional development (CPD) is essential for radiographers to maintain and update their specialised knowledge base in light of constant professional changes. CPD is the continuous and systematic maintenance, improvement, and broadening of knowledge and skills and the development of personal qualities necessary for the execution of professional and technical duties. Professional and regulatory bodies are increasingly relying on proof of CPD through a variety of learning opportunities to provide evidence of clinical competence. Importantly, CPD has been linked not only to competence but also to motivation and job satisfaction. However, for CPD to be embraced fully, the individual needs to see how activity can be planned and recorded in a way that is meaningful to them in the context of their career aspirations. This article will review basic principles of why evidence is needed for CPD, what constitutes evidence (direct and indirect), and how that evidence can be presented. This will be discussed in the context of having a longer-term career vision, and embedded within Donner and Wheeler's five-phase career planning and development model.
持续专业发展(CPD)对于放射技师来说至关重要,以便他们根据不断变化的专业要求,维持并更新其专业知识储备。CPD是对知识和技能进行持续、系统的维护、提升及拓展,以及培养履行专业和技术职责所需的个人素质。专业和监管机构越来越依赖通过各种学习机会获得的CPD证据,以证明临床能力。重要的是,CPD不仅与能力相关,还与动机和工作满意度相关。然而,要让CPD得到充分接受,个人需要明白如何以一种在其职业抱负背景下对他们有意义的方式来规划和记录学习活动。本文将回顾CPD为何需要证据、证据的构成(直接证据和间接证据)以及如何呈现该证据的基本原则。这将在拥有长期职业愿景的背景下进行讨论,并融入唐纳和惠勒的五阶段职业规划与发展模型之中。
