About the CPD program

Here’s what you need to know about Solar Accreditation Australia’s continuing professional development (CPD) program. If you have questions, please contact cpd@saaustralia.com.au.

Installers and Designers: 

  • SAA is continuing to honour points already earned, or those that will be earned in the future, for completing training courses that were approved for CPD points by the CEC, at their full value (e.g. either 30 points or 10 points)
  • SAA have removed the categories of ‘core’ or ‘elective’ units, therefore the requirement to achieve a minimum of 60 points from ‘core’ units is also no longer applicable

Training Providers and Manufacturers: 

  • SAA is continuing to honour points for training units that were approved for CPD points by the CEC, at their full value (e.g. either 30 points or 10 points)
  • Currently accredited training units will continue to be accredited until their expiry date, when they will be reviewed under the new SAA accreditation framework, which will be announced during the three-month transition period
  • SAA have removed the categories of ‘core’ or ‘elective’ units, therefore all current and future training units approved for CPD points form part of Ongoing Learning Modules program
  • Ongoing Learning Modules will be eligible for CPD points up to a maximum of 20, allocated on a case-by-case basis
