CPD webinar accreditation is the process of having a webinar independently assessed and approved as a Continuing Professional Development activity. When a webinar is accredited by The CPD Group, it confirms that the content meets recognised professional development standards and that delegates can earn CPD credits and receive a verifiable CPD certificate for attending.
The CPD Group accredits webinars for training providers, coaches, event organisers, subject matter experts, and businesses across all industries. We assess both live webinars and pre-recorded webinar content. Our accreditation process is designed to be practical and straightforward, with each submission reviewed individually by our specialist team.
A webinar is a video-based learning session delivered online, either live or on demand. CPD webinar accreditation confirms that the session delivers genuine professional development value — that it has clear learning objectives, relevant content, a qualified presenter, and a means by which attendees can evidence their participation.
When your webinar is accredited by The CPD Group, your delegates can use a QR code to download a personalised CPD certificate at the end of the session. This certificate confirms the number of CPD credits earned and includes your accreditation number, which can be verified on The CPD Register.

The CPD Group's webinar accreditation process follows four stages.
Before accrediting your webinar, your organisation needs to be registered as an approved CPD Provider. This is free and confirms your organisation is ready to deliver CPD-accredited learning.
You provide a detailed summary of your webinar content, the learning objectives, the duration, and the credentials of the presenter.
The CPD Group's team assesses the expertise of the delivery team, the quality of the content, and the learning outcomes to confirm the webinar meets CPD standards.
Once accredited, you receive a unique QR code to display at your webinar. Delegates scan the code to receive their personalised CPD certificate, making the process seamless and immediate.
Provider registration is free, and we accredit single webinars or whole series. Get a tailored quote today.
The CPD Group accredits a wide range of webinar formats, including:
Live webinars with audience interaction & Q&A
Pre-recorded webinars available on demand
Single-session webinars covering one topic in depth
Multi-session webinar series
Industry-specific professional development
Regulatory and compliance update webinars
Product training & technical webinars with professional learning content
Many professionals need to demonstrate their CPD to an employer or professional body each year. When your webinar is CPD accredited, delegates can include it in their professional development record and provide verifiable evidence of their attendance and learning. This makes your webinar significantly more attractive to professional audiences.
Accredited webinars are listed on The CPD Register, the UK's leading directory of CPD activities. Professionals and employers actively search The CPD Register when looking for quality-assured learning, increasing your audience reach. Displaying The CPD Group's accreditation mark in your webinar promotion and on your website signals independent quality assurance.
The CPD Group's QR code system means delegates can access their CPD certificate immediately during or after the webinar, without any administrative effort from your team. Certificates are personalised, branded, and contain a verifiable accreditation number.
In a crowded market for online professional development content, CPD accreditation differentiates your webinars from unaccredited alternatives. For providers targeting professionals in regulated industries — healthcare, law, finance, engineering — accreditation is often a prerequisite for attendance.
Yes. Both live and pre-recorded webinars can be submitted for accreditation. The assessment criteria are the same regardless of delivery format — what matters is the quality of the learning content and objectives.
Delegates simply scan the QR code provided by The CPD Group at the end of the webinar. They enter their details and their personalised certificate is generated immediately. No manual certificate processing is required from the provider.
CPD credits are calculated based on the duration of the webinar. As a general rule, one CPD credit is equivalent to one hour of structured learning. A 60-minute webinar would typically earn one CPD credit. Your accreditation certificate will specify the exact number of credits.
