Continuing professional learning is based on the notion that learning for professionals is continuing, active, social, and related to their practice. In designing CPL activities the focus is on the spirit of critical inquiry to enable professionals to gain insights into their own learning and their assumptions about their practice (Webster-Wright, 2010). In higher education CPL has all of these facets and is framed to support different stages of an academic’s career.
