ANZAED eating disorder credentialed clinician perceptions and experiences of professional development
Credentialed clinicians found the CPD requirements of the Credential, including supervision and other CPD activities, to be valuable. However, many questioned the sustainability of maintaining the Credential, perceiving the requirements as challenging to meet due to time, cost, or access. There is a need for consideration of how to embed greater flexibility in the CPD requirements to account for a clinician's level of experience, clinicians' developmental needs, and professional circumstances.
