ABOUT OUR INITIATIVE

Gain access to healthcare conferences when you sign up with NNIA

Every two months the NNIA posts activities in the form of scientific articles and/or webinars accompanied by multiple choice questionnaires that are accredited 2 CPD points each. Members must obtain a 70% score to attain the allocated CPD points. The activities are based on pertinent topics and the most recent activities and are available for the entire year of accreditation. All activities therefore cease to be available from the CPD platform on the 20th of December each year.

The tests offer maximum flexibility to suit your busy schedule as they are multiple choice, can be completed at any time, and saves your progress to allow interruptions. There are 2 attempts to meet the pass rate requirement for each questionnaire.

A CPD certificate is awarded immediately upon completion of an activity. You will also be able to view your NNIA CPD activities and points at any time on your profile. NNIA members receive regular email alerts on upcoming CPD activities.

Non-HPCSA accredited healthcare professionals are encouraged to inquire with their relevant professional bodies on whether NNIA activities will be recognised for CPD points.
