Please be sure to upload all PDP certificates into your member file, as soon as you receive them. Our new online system allows you to keep track of your PDP accumulation for your membership renewal. PDP documents are processed once uploaded and will have a tick next to them once approved. Guidelines for the file size and format of documents are noted in your personal member file under the heading ‘document uploads’.
PAA membership requires 20 PDPs every 2 years to ensure currency of knowledge and skills, with a minimum of 5 PDPs in any one year. All workshops listed on the PAA website under Professional Development, have been assessed and approved for PDPs and the number of PDPs is also listed.
Workshops not approved by PAA must meet our professional development program guidelines and require submission of the course outline, date, duration and instructor biography in line with the requirements for a PAA approved workshop. Please note that non approved workshops do not receive full PDP points. Encourage your workshop provider to apply for PAA approval for their workshop to ensure you are able to claim PDPs.
Short on PDPs this year? The PAA Conference at Sydney Technology Park will give you 15 PDPs. Why not come along and update your skills and knowledge with the four amazing international presenters as they share a wealth of experience from various Pilates schools. Further details about the conference are available on our website.
