VetCommunity launch My ppd Log
PPD log
My ppd Log can be tailored to suit your individual needs.

My ppd Log personalises the CPD process

In association with Veterinary Practice Today, the VetCommunity site already provides a varied collection of Personal and Professional Development (PPD) articles, covering a range of topics and specialities. These articles are available to registered members and now, at the click of a button, can be directly linked to an innovative PPD Log.

Developed by members of the veterinary profession, My ppd Log addresses the need to be able to personalise the CPD process and offers a smarter way of managing your CPD portfolio. With intuitive functions and many one-click options, the log is simple to use and unique in its adaptability.

My ppd Log is a free, easy to use tool, which will enable you to:

  •  Input practical activity alongside reading and online courses
  •  Convert your reading and research quickly and easily into CPD evidence
  •  Summarise key article points for easy reference
  •  Instantly record when you encounter relevant research material
  •  Create links to access material from external online resources with just one click
  •  Access and update your log at home, work or on the go from any tablet or PC
  •  Download and print Certificates of your logged PPD
  •  Manage your time effectively by inputting future events and scheduling reading and research time
My ppd Log can be tailored to suit your individual needs and working style and is the perfect tool to help you organise and track your CPD. Registered members have unlimited access to both the VetCommunity site and My ppd Log.

Registration is free and available to veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses and practice managers, and can be used to standardise CPD recording across practices.

Sponsored by the Central College of Animal Studies, VetCommunity and My ppd Log form a personal and intuitive CPD solution.
