1. Which year am I declaring compliance with CPD?


You are declaring compliance for the previous CPD calendar year. This means during the 2024 AtP process you will be declaring compliance for the period 1 January 2023 - 31 December 2023.  


If you did not hold a practising certificate during that period, complete the declaration based on the last calendar year you held a practising certificate.


Any barrister who has not completed their CPD requirements will not be refused authorisation. However, they will be asked to list what action they are taking to remedy this situation. Failure to take further action to resolve your CPD requirements may result in you being referred to the BSB's Supervision Department.


New practitioners are subject to a three-year programme and therefore should select this option on the declaration.
