“Originally, we didn’t set out to build a platform; we went looking around for a good CPD solution and at the time there was nothing really suitable in the market.
“Most of the other platforms just give you PDF articles and that only suits about 10 to 15 per cent of the audience,” he said.
Mr Eldridge said most pleasing was the subscription of Plan, Fast and Choice brokers, after the Advantedge groups switched from Kaplan’s Ontrack System. “So a little Aussie business beats Kaplan – a US-owned monolith,” he joked.
Aside from videos and podcasts, the platform supports e-learning courses and automatically records all training completed.
All content uploaded to the CPDone platform is assigned CPD points in accordance with industry body rules.
Mr Eldridge said a mobile version of the platform will be rolled out next year.
“Currently, it can be used on a mobile device but this new totally mobile platform will mean you can download videos and podcasts, listen to them offline and when you get back online the platform will automatically update your CPD points,” he said.
