ABOUT CPD ON THE SEA
The story behind CPD on the Sea
Presenter-led professional development for Australian psychologists and mental health professionals, with time to learn, reflect and connect.

The Concept
Professional development deserves time and attention. Yet CPD is often squeezed between appointments, administration and the demands of everyday practice.
CPD on the Sea brings together face-to-face learning, experienced presenters and space to engage with topics relevant to psychological and mental health practice.
The voyage provides the setting, with time to ask questions, continue conversations and reflect on what the learning means for your work.
