Follow the correct procedure to collect CPD points
There has been some confusion regarding the claiming of CPD points and Plumbing Africa registration .
Upon registration you will receive an email from Plumbing Africa which includes the following message :
CPD CLAIM CERTIFICATE
“ Please see below confirmation email confirming you have been registered to receive your Plumbing Africa print issue . Attach a screenshot of this email with your certificate to your Plumbers profile to claim your 5 CPD points .”
This is then followed by a certificate which carries a contact ID 00000 ( top left corner ), all your details as provided on the Register to Receive form and confirms you are an active recipient of Plumbing Africa . See example on the right .
The certificate is the ONLY MEANS OF CLAIMING CPD Points . The Register to Receive form is for Plumbing Africa ’ s own internal use as required by POPI Act and a copy sent to PIRB will NOT qualify to receive your CPD points .
As regards the CPD Questionnaire , which is handled electronically mainly , continues as per normal . Complete all 11 issues and one will receive 2.75 points per annum .
