CPD Accredited Courses

Virtual Classroom Learning

CPD Accredited Short Courses


Our workshops and short courses are run over 1.5 -4 hour sessions
- long enough to be engaged and learn a lot, but not so much that
it becomes hard to concentrate.

They are all CPD Accredited, so great for your Continuous Professional Development!

Pochat Training is a CPD Accrediation Office Accredited Centre

I have just completed two of the four courses I have booked so far with this company. As a registered nurse I am keen to maintain my knowledge and indeed add to it. These courses count towards our CPD. I found the courses to be well structured, informative and fun. Otilia involves her students and discusses how elements of the course applies to each of them in particular. We are invited to ask questions at any time along the way. I look forward to my next course with Pochat Training.
