Continuing Professional Development (CPD) CPD is any learning that develops and maintains professional competence to enable a member to continue to perform their professional role.
Calculating your CPD learning What learning activities did you participate in? Courses, conferences, seminars? Did you do any presentations? Did you write any reports?

I retired during the year. You have a full CPD requirement. Do you comply? If you do not comply you must make a declaration of non-comply.
Working during retirement. No reliance on any skills, knowledge or experience as a CPA. Just doing something to get out of the house during retirement. You may qualify for an exemption. Examples of positions with no reliance would be: Walmart greeter Restaurant server Gas station attendant Golf course grounds keeper
