As an Accredited Mediator of the Hong Kong Mediation Accreditation Association Limited (HKMAAL), Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), Hong Kong Mediation Centre (HKMC), or the Law Society of Hong Kong (HK Law Soc), you are required under their rules to fulfil a certain number of CPD hours per review cycle. Profectional® makes it simple to accrue CPD mediation hours as members at multiple mediation centres can earn HKMAAL, HKIAC, HKMC and HK Law Soc Mediation CPD points from the same course.

Broaden Your Knowledge Base and Expand Your Career Opportunities with CPD

Continuing Professional Development is designed to ensure the knowledge and skill of practitioners remains current, relevant and finely tuned, and ensures that they continue to grow over the course of their career as an alternative dispute resolution professional. Broadly speaking, there are three main areas of CPD which can be engaged with to meet the requirements for continued accreditation. These include training, voluntary works related to mediation, and professional activities.

Hong Kong Mediation Accreditation Association Limited - Based on a 3-year review cycle, a HKMAAL Accredited Mediator must undertake at least 15 hours of CPD during the previous 3 years in order to renew his/her status. Starting from 2019 however, a HKMAAL Accredited General/Family Mediator should obtain a minimum of 5 CPD points every calendar year.

Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre - A HKIAC Accredited Mediator should acquire a minimum of 20 hours of CPD during a 4-year review cycle to be able to renew his/her accreditation.

Hong Kong Mediation Centre - A mechanism of a minimum of 10 CPD points must be completed by a HKMC Accredited Mediator is required on a 2-year review cycle.

The Law Society of Hong Kong - In addition to the general CPD requirements, i.e. 15 CPD points per year, every HK Law Soc Accredited Solicitor-Mediator must meet 20 hours of Mediation CPD during a period of 4 years from their admission.

It is therefore ideally to maintain 5 CPD points per year so as to cope with the requirements of all the professional bodies above.
