    CPD Guidelines Overview

    CPD Requirements Explained

    The Dru Yoga CPD guidelines outline the essential Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements for accredited teachers, aiming to ensure they maintain and enhance their skills.

    Teachers are expected to complete a certain number of CPD hours annually, which includes attending workshops, courses, and events related to Dru Yoga.

    Joining the Dru Professional Network (DPN) offers Dru Yoga teachers invaluable benefits, including access to exclusive CPD resources, professional development opportunities, and a supportive community.

    Becoming part of the DPN not only supports your career growth but also connects you with like-minded professionals dedicated to excellence in yoga and well-being.

    Professional codes of conduct for DPN

    The Dru Code of Conduct ensures high standards for all professionals. It requires members to graduate from the relevant training programme, pass their final assessment, and maintain membership with the Dru Professional Network (DPN).

    Active DPN membership allows the use of Dru trademarks and logos to promote services while upholding ethical practices. Lapsed membership forfeits these privileges and affirms Dru's commitment to professional integrity.

    Members must complete Continuing Professional Development (CPD) regularly and ensure they have valid professional indemnity insurance.
