2026-10-04-five-board-source-review

Five current public Board sources were reviewed. CPDKeep corrected a registry omission: Chinese Medicine requires a CPD portfolio documenting learning goals, planned activities, reflection and activity evidence.

The effective Board standards did not change. Chinese Medicine's existing 20-hour total, five interactive hours and four professional-issues hours remain unchanged. Nursing, midwifery, paramedicine and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Practice were reverified without requirement fact changes.

Scope

Current public National Board standards and guidance were checked for eleven professions. CPDKeep now records existing interactive CPD requirements for podiatry and optometry, and the optometry non-clinical CPD limit.

The effective Board standards and core CPD totals did not change. The podiatry and optometry details correct omissions in CPDKeep's prior summary; endorsement and surgeon obligations remain practitioner-specific rather than included in default targets.
