The South African Council for Quantity Surveyors has introduced a system of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for all quantity surveyors registered in terms of the Quantity Surveyors’ Act (36 of 1970), effective from 1January 1999.
The CPD system has been developed as a user-friendly process and the 200 points to be acquired over a 5-year period should be easily achieved.
The process will be
• neither complicated nor prohibitively expensive
• tailored to suit reciprocal international accreditation agreements
The primary objective of the CPD system is to enhance professional skills while supporting development in the quantity surveying profession
The Council has delegated its authority in terms of the Quantity Surveyors’ Act (49 of 2000) for
- monitoring
- management
- delivery of all content
- maintenance of standards and outcomes of ongoing professional development and training in quantity surveying leading to
- registration
- renewal of registration with the Council
to the Association of South African Quantity Surveyors (ASAQS) who will administer the CPD system (renewal of registration) In the foreseeable future, other professional societies and associations may apply to the ASAQS for accreditation as CPD providers (activities and programmes) according to specific criteria and guidelines
