Retaining your IMI TechSafe CPD recognition
A vital aspect of the Professional Register and IMI TechSafe is ensuring members remain current in their knowledge, skills, and competency. Therefore, CPD training is required to maintain IMI TechSafe recognition. We’ve streamlined this process so that any CPD course you complete with the IMI is automatically logged, allowing you to focus on other priorities. You must complete your CPD training with an approved Awarding Organisation and be aligned with the CPD framework, set and agreed upon by the IMI and the IMI TechSafe Sector Advisory Group.
