The App unfortunately provided some challenges, both technically, but more importantly it has been a challenge getting Security
Institute members to accept the app as a really easy way to complete CPD. With the review in 2019 of the Toolbox, it is hoped that in
2020 further improvements will be made, which will then themselves be reflected in the App from 2021. The App is only available to
Security Institute members, whereas the Toolbox (https://security-institute.org/cpd/) is available to any security practitioner.

Awareness is constantly drawn between making the Toolkit available with the subsequent submissions and Head Office resources.
However, with plans afoot for addressing the resourcing, it is intended that the Toolbox will become more and more widely accepted
and used by individuals who are not Institute members.

2019 has seen Continued Professional Development become much more than three letters that become forgotten. 2019 has seen
Continued Professional Development starting to become established, both with individuals and organisations alike, as a necessity.
