 I am recently back to work after a career break to have my children. i&amp;#39;m currently working part-time, about 10 hours per week. This may increase. 
 Anyway, what are the CPD &amp;#39;rules&amp;#39; - ie, is it a legal requirement, how much do you have to</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>Re: CPD - back to work after a long break, can you tell me about CPD etc?</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/100245?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 29 Oct 2010 19:20:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:207128c2-1ef5-4f7e-9a3d-dcec336eae98</guid><dc:creator>Phrin Vernon RVN</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Are you VN or RVN? I think the rules are different for each, but I am not entirely sure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I came back into practice as a L3 SVN after a 4 year break, and had to do 4mths working in practice, and then get a signed statement from my practice principle saying I was working to the standard of a L3 SVN before I could re-enroll with the RCVS. I think I heard there was something similar in place for QVNs coming back into practice after an extended period, but I may very well be wrong...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Worth ringing the RCVS on Monday though so that you can find out for sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
