Most legal practitioners in Australia and New Zealand require Continuing Professional Development Hours or Points to maintain their professional designation. Browse courses that meet your requirements, or choose one of our course packages, specially curated to contain all the hours and credits you need, in one place. The courses on LearnFormula may be counted towards professionally relevant, verifiable learning activities. It is the student's responsibility to validate whether an activity is an eligible educational activity for their professional development requirements based on their own learning needs.
The CPD year commences on 1 April of each calendar year and concludes on 31 March of the following year. Barristers must complete a minimum of 10 CPD points in a CPD year. Barristers must complete at least 1 CPD point per CPD year in each of the following categories:
