South Dublin Council Extends CPD Accreditation

Engineers Ireland has extended South Dublin County Council's status as a CPD Accredited Employer until November 2021.

The local authority has been CPD accredited since 2008.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is a timely professional updating. It is the process of lifelong learning for professionals. CPD is especially concerned with the development of real value to the professional.


The achievement highlights the Council's commitment to fostering career development and building the organisation's technical capacity.

In being awarded this status, the Council underwent a day-long Re-Accreditation Audit in October 2018, assessed under seven CPD criteria, and achieved CPD Accreditation for a further three years until November 2021.

Mr Peter Quinn President of Engineers Ireland presented SDCC with the Certificate for Re-Accreditation as a CPD Accredited Employer.
