The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) has launched a continuing professional development product (CPD) for the superannuation industry called SuperCPD.
The new product will consist of a quarterly multimedia subscription that is designed to keep people in the industry up-to-date with the latest changes to superannuation while meeting ongoing compliance obligations.
ASFA chief executive Pauline Vamos said SuperCPD was a flexible product that would keep organisational leaders abreast of the latest industry thinking.
SuperCPD combines text and video with commentary from industry experts. Every edition comprises of at least six topics - each of which, gives subscribers the opportunity to achieve on CPD point.
"ASFA has been delivering CPD for nearly 50 years, and we're now going to the next level," Vamos said.
"SuperCPD is about not only keeping up-to-date, but developing yourself for your next role and maintaining your RG 146 compliance," Vamos added.
The ASFA product will also help HR and compliance departments keep track of the development of staff throughout their organisation, according to Vamos.
The corporate watchdog is preparing to publish a progress report on private credit this September, following a comprehensive review of the rapidly expanding market.
