Unfortunately all the previously approved courses in 2020 are still backlogged and still have no awarded units. The secretary of the nursing CPD council has promised to fast-track the processing of all backlogged courses, but has not committed to a specific date.

To all those who are currently enrolled in the 5 courses, you can opt to finish and pass the course after July 1, 2021 to avail of the awarded units. If you pass before July 1, 2021, you will need to wait for the backlog to be processed in order to receive your credited units.

All the quizzes for the affected courses will be disabled on June 30, 2021. This is to give us time to update the certificate to reflect the awarded units and new program accreditation numbers.

We have submitted 4 other courses for renewal also by July 1. We hope to have them processed the soonest.
