Registrants urged to accept thousands of pending CET points

A reminder has been issued by the GOC for registrants to accept their pending CET points in MyCET if they are to count for the 2013-15 CET cycle.

The regulator said 33,202 points remained pending in its MyCET area.

Registrants not meeting their requirements for the 2013-15 CET cycle by 31 December 2015 were putting their registration at risk, the GOC has stressed.

It also said that registrants who have already met their requirements were not allowed to save points for the next cycle.

Marcus Dye, GOC head of education and standards, said: ‘Requiring practitioners to accept CET points is vital to ensure that providers have not made errors in uploading them to the system. It also allows practitioners to write reflection statements about their learning and in some cases to choose whether their points count towards a speciality or general points target.
