2. Grey areas cannot be entered
Grey areas cannot be entered. They will be entered automatically from the list that will open once you searched in the activity box.
The blue activity box serves as a search field. Type any part of your validation number, description of the activity or the provider’s name to search for your activity. Then click the “Click” button to open a list of activities from which you may select.
Hours claimed will also be entered automatically and can be changed to a lesser value.
This is the period in which your data must be captured. Click on the “C” button adjacent to the textbox to open a list of periods from which you may select.

3. Above is an example of the results received from searching in the activity box. The search text used was “fundamentals” which resulted in a list of activities with the word “fundamentals” in the description. Once the list is opened you can click in the left column (underlined) to select your specific item. The data will then be entered in the text fields on the main screen from where you can continue to enter your CPD points

4. In the screen you will see lists like these that will show the data that you captured for a period. In the far left hand column you can click to enter the data in the text fields so you can change it or add more information.

5. Work-based activities must be captured manually because there is no pre-validated items here. The buttons work the same as previously explained as well as the clicking on the lists (far left column) that will fill in the text fields for the specific screen. The dates can be captured by hand (dd/mm/yyyy format, do not forget the “/” slashes) or can be selected by clicking the “C” buttons which will open a calendar from which the date can be selected. See next slide for an example.

6. Above is an example of the calendar that will pop-up when you clicked the “C” button. You can change the month and the year and once you clicked on a date, the date will be entered in the text field on the main screen.

7. The blue activity box is (as previously explained) used as a search field. In this case you can type any part of the voluntary association’s name or abbreviation and then click on the “Click” button to open a list (see slide nr. 3 for an example) from which you can select a voluntary association. This works similar to the developmental activities. The rest of the buttons works the same as previously explained.
Please see the next slide for an example of the Activity Types and how it works.
The rest of Individual Activities can be captured manually and all the buttons and other function work as previously explained.

8. Above is a list of all activity types as it will appear on screen after you clicked the “C” button. Select the activity type for which you want to enter CPD points by clicking the required item in the left column (underlined).
