Question by Emmie:
What is the difference between a professional activity and a professional practice?
It is for a professional development report. So how did my PD model professional activity for me and then how did it demonstrate professional practice to me? What's the difference?
Best answer:
Answer by Hearty
Example: A lawyer maintains and improves his skills by working as a lawyer. The lawyer also needs to participate in professional development courses as part of professional activity
4.2.1 Professional Practice
Active professional practice is a significant factor in maintaining and improving your
skills, either where you are actually practicing according to the legal definition (see
Appendix I) or “influencing†the practice of the professions. "Influencing" means having some effect on how the professions are practiced without necessarily performing technical work.
15 hours of work equals one PDH.
A maximum of 50 PDHs per year may be claimed in this category.
4.2.2 Formal Activity
You should strive to include some formal activities in your continuing professional
development program. Formal activities are often for academic credit and may include an evaluation process. Where there is no evaluation, credit may be claimed in this category for activities that are over half a day in length. For example, formal activities include:
• professional development programs, courses and seminars
• courses offered by universities, technical institutes, colleges, suppliers, employers or
technical societies
• courses offered in traditional classroom settings, by correspondence, by video or
online
One hour of course attendance equals one PDH.
