How Ponder Aligns with CPD Requirements
| PsyBA Requirement | How Ponder Supports You |
|---|---|
| 1. Maintain a Learning Plan | Ponder includes a built-in Learning Plan where you can set professional goals, identify areas for development, and plan CPD activities. |
| 2. Record CPD Activities | Log each CPD activity with its type, date, hours, category, and supporting documents (certificates, receipts, etc.). |
| 3. Reflect on Learning | Each entry includes a Reflection field for recording insights, outcomes, and relevance to your practice. |
| 4. Record Peer Consultation | Dedicated Peer Consultation section for logging sessions, discussion topics, and total hours. |
| 5. Meet Hour Requirements | Automatic tracking helps ensure your annual CPD includes a minimum of 10 peer consultation hours and 20 general CPD hours. |
| 6. Retain Evidence | Upload and attach evidence (PDFs, screenshots, or receipts) directly to your entries. |
| 7. Provide Evidence for Audit | One-click export produces an organised PDF record (Learning Plan, CPD log, reflections, and peer consultation), ready for PsyBA audit submission. |
| 8. Retain Records for Five Years | PsyBA expects CPD evidence to be retained for at least five years. Ponder retains your records for as long as your account remains active — well beyond that minimum. If you delete your account, you can export your full CPD record yourself beforehand — we'll send reminders, but exporting is your responsibility. Your data is permanently erased 30 days after your deletion request, except where retention is required by law. |
This table reflects Ponder's own summary of how its features map to the Psychology Board of Australia's CPD Registration Standard and Guidelines, current as of the date below. It is not an official PsyBA document and should not be treated as a substitute for the Board's published standard — always refer to PsyBA directly for the authoritative requirements.
Continuous Review
Ponder's templates and exports are reviewed annually by registered psychologists and updated to reflect any changes in PsyBA CPD standards.
Ponder was built by psychologists, for psychologists — so you can feel confident that your CPD records are structured, compliant, and ready whenever you need them.
