Law |
| How
do I obtain CPD points? |
Answer:
As an accredited provider of The Law Society of Hong Kong, all of our courses are officially accredited by the Society. Kindly note that starting from the 1st November 2008, Law Society members are no longer required to scan their membership cards to record course attendance. However, please remember to update your training records.
Please also note that the Law Society has revised the attendance policy with effect from 1 November 2005 as follows:
For courses of less than 60 minutes in duration:
If you are absent for any period during the course, including late arrivals or early departures, you will not receive any CPD points for that course.
For courses of 60 minutes or more in duration:
The Law Society allows a 10 minute grace period of either late arrival or early departure (but not both in the same course) without deduction of any CPD points. However, if you are absent during the course apart from scheduled breaks, you will not receive any CPD points for that course.
For courses of 3 hours or more but less than 6 hours in duration:
(i) 1 CPD point will be deducted for any late arrival or early departure beyond the 10 minutes' grace period of up to 30 minutes from the commencement of the course.
(ii) If you arrive late or leave early for more than 30 minutes or absent during the course apart from scheduled breaks, you will not receive any CPD points for that course.
If you arrive late and leave early in the same course, the grace period or partial award of CPD points will not apply. In such case, no CPD points will be awarded for that course.
