Government CPD Boost 2023
31 March 2023

These webinars were recorded in March 2023. Many Australian jurisdictions do not allow CPD to be claimed for watching audio visual material produced more than 12 months ago.
For practising certificates held in NSW / VIC / ACT / QLD / SA / TAS / NT: The CPD schemes of most Australian jurisdictions are based on the principles of self-assessment. If our recorded webinar extends your knowledge and skills in areas that are relevant to your practice needs or professional development, then you may be able to claim CPD. It is up to each individual to plan their CPD according to the regulations of their jurisdiction. Your law society is the best place to visit for further information about CPD requirements.
If relevant to your practising jurisdiction, to receive your confirmation certificate, complete the online form which will appear when you have finished watching each recorded webinar.
For practising certificates held in WA: Unfortunately at this time Ashurst Australia is not able to allocate this recorded webinar (a non-interactive electronic activity) as a CPD activity in Western Australia.
Note on CPD category names: The names of CPD categories differ across some jurisdictions:
