In keeping with the GMC condition that CPD activity doesn’t need a set number of 'points' or 'credits', the Association doesn't issue these for its educational activities.  
 

However, for those members who wish to record their CPD in terms of points or credits it's normal practice to give one credit or point for each hour of education provided.   
 

CPD certificates will be available to download from the 'My Account' section of the Association of Anaesthetists website immediately after the conference.
