Hi
Hope you can help. My FHT membership is coming up for its first renewal and I should have done some CPD but its taken months to get started and I havent earnt any money yet. I've looked at the SNHS courses which seem really well priced but I dont know if the FHT will recognise the certificates. Has anyone got any suggestions for CPD points that wont cost me much.
I want to study EFT but find all the different websites and courses quite confusing with different qualifications and prices. Its hard to know what to do. Any advice?

Hi Debs
My understanding is that the FHT don't accept some certificates for practicing a therapy (i.e. they won't insure you).
For cpd, the FHT accept training from external sources, and self study. I think its more about having a cpd portfolio showing evidence of your ongoing commitment to learning, rather than having to produce certain "accredited" certificates. You may even find that some study you've done already this year can count towards cpd by the logging of it in a cpd portfolio, and writing a short piece about its relevence to your practice.
The FHT info is on this page http://www.fht.org.uk/Homepage/Education_and_Events/CPD/ .
Hope that helps.

Thank you for the advice - I've looked up the link and I think I've already done stuff that will count towards my CPD. Thanks again. This is such a helpful website - I've gained more knowledge from therapsits on this site than from the FHT who I have to pay my membership to. Thanks again.

Hi debs,
perhaps you havent asked the right questions, I find FHT very helpful.

just an aside - I have to agree that the FHT forum is a little lacking. I asked a question on there and as yet have not had one single reply.. asked same question on here and got several helpful replies and added info.. shame really as you would of thought that you would get sound advise from a sound membership forum..
