  7. All members are required to record 30 hours pro rata CPD (Continuing Professional Development) each year • Each year, members declare that they have completed their CPD • A square root sample is selected to be reviewed

  8. Gaining Q/ATLS Those teaching in the sector since September 2007 need to go through the Professional Formation process to gain QTLS (Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills) status. Those employed before that date are encouraged to gain QTLS.

  9. Professional Formation is a post-qualification process • It is not a course • A/QTLS can only be awarded by the IfL

  10. Membership • Currently, members do not have to pay a membership fee • There is currently no fee for those involved in ITT for the post compulsory sector • Fees will be introduced shortly
