CPD Committee

The Continuous Professional Development (CPD) sub-committee is part of the EMDR All Ireland Board. Its function is to review applications for CPD points for events that will take place on the Island of Ireland or virtually.

The sub-committee is Chaired by

  • Derek McLaughlin (Chair)
  • Saleen Tareen
  • Eileen Brophy

As applications come in the material is reviewed by all three members and a decision is made on the eligibility of the event and what CPD points to award. The sub-committee feeds back to the Accreditation Committee on a three-monthly basis and this is forwarded to the full Board. The applicant is informed of the outcome and if the event is supported an evaluation of the event is to be furnished to the sub-committee when the event is complete.
