A class 2 agent's first licence was issued on 20 May, less than 90 days before the CPD year ends on 30 June. What CPD must she complete for that CPD year?
Correct Answer
C) None; a licence that starts within 90 days of year end is exempt.
Fair Trading exempts licence or certificate holders from CPD for a CPD year if their licence or certificate began less than 90 days before the end of that year. The exemption does not apply where a licence recommences after suspension or cancellation with a condition requiring specified CPD.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
The 90-day rule exempts a new licence issued less than 90 days before 30 June.
