Abstract :
A continuing professional education (CPE) programme—usually taken up by a working professional for many reasons but not for obtaining an academic degree—consists of academic course work, training courses, conferences, seminars, workshops, etc. One reason for taking up CPE activities is to update oneself with current knowledge and to advance skills in order to remain relevant, effective and to increase professionalism in the profession. If one has left classrooms many years ago and many changes have taken place in the profession since then, CPE is the way forward.
