ICE Breaker 2023 Membership
CPD framework
In 2022, ICE has launched a new framework of key Continuing Professional Development (CPD) topics.
Members are strongly advised to include these topics in the framework into their CPD planning and
highlight them within their Development Action Plan (DAP). Members should also indicate in the
Personal Development Record (PDR) how their CPD activities align to ICE CPD Framework topics.
The topics will be updated every year and published on the ICE website. Click here
ice.org.uk/membership/ice-cpd-framework to view the CPD topics for 2022 and 2023.
Why has ICE introduced the framework?
The initial catalyst for introducing the framework was ICE's 2018 In Plain Sight report, which
recommended topics covering risk management and public safety in which civil engineers must
continue to demonstrate competency if they are to play their role in improving society.
However, safety is only one of our challenges as civil engineers so the framework is broadened to
include topics that cover contemporary themes such as digital transformation, decarbonisation and
productivity.
Who is the framework for?
The framework is aimed at professionally qualified
members, those holding a CEng, IEng or EngTech
12c-1
qualification.
The topics may also be relevant to members from
other grades to address as part of their professional
development and the Professionalism Panel
encourages all members to consider the topics in the
framework when planning their CPD.
