36 months of CPD Accreditation
With the world's only
Certified CPD Accreditation Organisation
Switching to The CPD Group is straightforward. Here's what you need to know.
Share a copy of your current accreditation certificate, invoice, or contract as proof of existing accreditation with another provider.
Allow a minimum of 3 months' lead time so we can complete your assessment and schedule your start date with us.
Your new accreditation begins the day your existing one ends — no gap in your accreditation status at any point.
If you hold CPD accreditation with another organisation, the chances are you signed up, paid your invoice, and haven't heard much since. No reassessment. No review. Just an annual renewal request. You might be wondering whether your accreditation is working as hard for your business as it should be. You're not alone — and that's exactly why we built the Competitor Transfer Rate.
CPD accreditation fees vary significantly across providers. If you're currently accredited elsewhere, you're likely paying between 25% and 60% more than The CPD Group charges for equivalent accreditation - without any additional benefit for that premium.
The Competitor Transfer Rate gives you 36 months of accreditation with The CPD Group at exactly half our already-competitive standard price. For most providers, that represents a substantial saving over three years compared to staying where you are.

Many CPD accreditation bodies carry out a single assessment at the point of sign-up and never formally review your courses again. As long as you keep paying, you keep the mark — regardless of whether your content has been updated, improved, or changed significantly since that initial review.
At The CPD Group, we believe accreditation should mean something. If you update your course materials, you resubmit them for reassessment, which is all part of your Accreditation Fees. That means your accreditation mark genuinely reflects the quality of your training today, not just the version you submitted years ago. For your learners, employers, and professional body contacts, that distinction matters.
Most CPD accreditation providers invoice you once and expect payment in full. There's no monthly option, no payment plan, and no flexibility for providers managing cash flow across the year.
The CPD Group offers a range of payment options as standard — including monthly direct debit spread across your full contract term, a three-payment split, or a 25% deposit followed by 11 equal monthly payments. There's also a 5% discount if you prefer to pay upfront. You choose the option that works best for your business.
The CPD Group is the first and currently only Certified CPD Accreditation Organisation in the world — independently verified, not self-declared. When your courses are accredited with us, they are listed on The CPD Register, an internationally recognised directory used by learners, employers, and professional bodies to verify the quality of CPD provision.
That visibility, and the credibility that comes with it, is something a logo and a certificate from an unverified body simply cannot replicate.
If your experience with your current CPD accreditation provider has felt like paying a fee, receiving a logo, and then hearing very little, you're not alone. A recurring theme amongst providers who have left other accreditation bodies is the absence of any meaningful support after the initial sign-up: no proactive communication, no guidance through the assessment process, and no one to turn to when questions arise.
At The CPD Group, every provider is allocated a dedicated CPD Accreditation Consultant for the full duration of their accreditation term. This is a named individual who knows your account, understands your courses, and is there to support you throughout, not just at the point of sale. Additionally, every course submission is assigned a dedicated, named assessor, so you always know who is reviewing your work and can build a consistent, productive working relationship with them.
This matters because inconsistent assessment, where different assessors apply different standards to the same type of course, is one of the most commonly cited frustrations amongst providers who have experienced other accreditation bodies. With a named assessor assigned to each submission, that inconsistency is eliminated.
Some CPD accreditation providers require up to three months' written notice to cancel a contract, a condition buried deep within lengthy terms and conditions, with no proactive reminder sent as renewal approaches. Providers who miss this window have found themselves liable for another full year's fees, with little recourse and an unwillingness from the provider to negotiate.
At The CPD Group, our terms are transparent, our pricing is published openly on our website, and there are no hidden notice traps. We believe a provider should choose to stay with us because we have earned their continued business, not because they missed a clause in three thousand words of small print.
With some accreditation bodies, the accreditation mark is tied entirely to continued payment. Stop paying, for any reason, including a genuine dispute and your previously accredited courses lose their status immediately, regardless of the quality of the content or the investment you have made. For providers who have spent months getting courses assessed and approved, this creates a dependency that can feel less like a partnership and more like a lock-in.
At The CPD Group, your accreditation term is exactly that — a term. Your courses hold their accredited status for the duration of the period you have paid for, without condition. We also operate a constructive approach to any concerns or disputes: our team is accessible, our CPD Accreditation Consultants are empowered to resolve issues, and we do not respond to complaints with threats or hostility.
We've designed the Competitor Transfer Rate specifically so that moving to The CPD Group doesn't cost you time, money, or continuity. Your new accreditation begins the day your existing one ends. There's no gap, no disruption, and no reason to wait until your current contract is up before getting in touch.
