A PRC Memorandum Order was issued for the guidelines for the processing of Application under Self Directed Learning.
Matrix of CPD Activities
Here is the General Matrix of CPD Activities for your reference. Take note that for some professions, a Specific Matrix of CPD Activities is used. Contact your respective Accredited Professional Organization (APO) if they are using a specific matrix for crediting units.
