How to record & report your CPD to OMARA

Good news: with an OMARA-approved provider, most of the reporting is handled for you. But you should still keep your own evidence — here's how CPD records work and what to hold onto for re-registration.

The short version

Approved providers report your completed activities to the OMARA. Your job is to keep your own record of what you've done — provider, activity number, date, points and category — so you can show it if asked.

Who reports your CPD?

When you complete an activity with an OMARA-approved CPD provider, the provider records your completion against your MARN and reports it. That's why it matters to complete CPD with approved providers and to give your correct MARN and registered name when you book — it's how your completion is matched to you.

At Widen CPD, every live session and self-paced module you finish is recorded against your MARN and reported to the OMARA, and you receive a completion confirmation for your own file.

What records you should keep

Keep your own evidence for each activity, even when the provider reports it. A simple CPD log with these fields is enough:

FieldExample
ProviderWiden CPD (OMARA-approved)
Activity name & OMARA activity numberEthical Standards for RMAs — (activity no.)
Date completed19 September 2026
Points & category1 point · Category A
EvidenceCompletion certificate / email confirmation

How long to keep it

Hold your CPD evidence at least until your registration has been renewed, and for any record-keeping period the OMARA specifies. If you're ever unsure, keep it longer — the records are small, and they're your proof if a query comes up.
