Learn wherever and whenever you want with the Digital Academy. Create your very own, continuous professional development (CPD) plan using the IoD Academy’s self-assessment tool so you’ll know what you’ll need in order to achieve your goals, focus on the areas important to you and follow your progress on the CPD tracker. Alongside suites of learning to accompany your training course, IoD members can enjoy unlimited access to our powerful learning tools including bite-sized CPD content, articles, podcasts, webinars and videos all mapped to the Director Competency Framework.
