The complete CPD management cycle

CPD Request Workflows

Staff submit CPD requests with course details, cost, and rationale. Managers approve or decline with a comment. Every decision is logged.

Budget Tracking

Set a CPD budget per staff member or department. TeachingTide tracks spend in real time so approvers always know how much headroom remains.

Impact Evaluation Forms

After CPD is completed, staff submit a reflection on impact. These link directly to their appraisal objectives and evidence portfolio.

Certificate Storage

Upload CPD certificates and qualifications. Certificates are stored securely and surfaced during appraisal reviews and accreditation visits.

School-Wide CPD Dashboard

HR and leadership see total investment, completion rates, and learning themes across the whole school — by department, role, or individual.

Linked to Appraisal Objectives

CPD activity connects to the staff member's professional objectives, closing the loop between learning, growth, and performance review.

Professional development tracking aligned to your school's strategy

International schools — whether IB World Schools in Singapore, COBIS member schools in the Middle East, or CIS-accredited institutions in Latin America — share one common challenge: demonstrating that professional development leads to measurable improvement in teaching and learning. TeachingTide creates a traceable record that connects each CPD investment to staff objectives, appraisal outcomes, and ultimately to school-wide improvement goals. This record is available on demand for accreditation teams and board-level reporting.
