Published information

The Accreditation page states that submitted coursework is marked "against CPD Standards" and returned as pending, with required changes, or approved. The About page states that "all our providers must hold an OFQUAL regulated teaching qualification" for courses in industries such as aesthetics and beauty therapy. We looked for the CPD Standards themselves and did not find them on the pages reviewed. Pricing is published on the Accreditation and Shop pages: Basic £350 (up to 10 courses), Premium £650 (up to 25 courses) and Unlimited £1,250, each covering 12 months. Terms and Conditions and a Privacy Policy are published at /terms/ and /privacy/; both are general website texts, and neither is linked from the site menu or footer. We looked for terms specific to the accreditation service and for a complaints procedure and did not find them. The site is served over HTTPS.

The Accreditation page states that approved providers receive "a provider number exclusive to The CPD Guild" and that approved coursework receives "CPD Guild approved course numbers". We looked for a public list or lookup of approved providers or courses and did not find one. The Accreditation page states that coverage "lasts for 12 months from package purchase date" and that renewal is discussed in the final month.
