The CPD Official (The CPD Official Compliance Limited) - CPD Accreditation Service

The CPD Official (The CPD Official Compliance Limited) - CPD Accreditation Service

Explanation as to why this organisation does not have a ranking:

The CPD Official are associated with the training provider “LA Beauty Dolls” which we feel is a conflict of interest, they also accredit their own courses which does not show independence. They are also listed as a trading name under LA Beauty Dolls on the UK Register for Learning Providers.

The CPD Officials website was live as of 20/02/2025 however, since then it is no longer live. Prior to removal, The CPD Official sold their own training manuals on their website and accredit them themselves, this is ultimately them “marking their own homework” which again, we feel is not independent.

The CPD Official is affiliated with insurance companies which we feel does not demonstrate an independent company. They may also share your data with 3^rd parties.

The CPD Official also do not have terms and conditions on their website which means if you purchased through them, you may not be protected.

They sell training materials themselves

We believe this is a conflict of interest and does not demonstrate impartiality. Secondly it brings into question what a training provider will do with another CPD Training Providers training materials during the accreditation process. We feel that this is a risk to the intellectual property of the submitting CPD Training Provider and caution should be given.

They are affiliated with an insurance company or another organisation

This often means that the so-called accreditation service are being paid or receive incentives to promote products or services or may share data with 3rd parties. Again, we feel this does not demonstrate an independent organisation.

Terms and Conditions Aren’t Accessible and Visible

Terms and conditions (T&Cs) form an important part of many business transactions, providing a legal framework governing the rights and obligations of the parties. They help ensure transparency and certainty and reduce the risk of disputes between the parties involved. The following CPD Accreditation Service Providers have vague terms and conditions or do not publish or have any Terms and Conditions visible on their site and caution should be given before entering into any contract with these companies. We advise that you request a copy of their terms and conditions before engaging in their Accreditation Services.
