The Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Scheme of AAT has been established with a view to enhancing the professional skills of members and to maintain a better relationship between the Association and its members. This CPD Scheme also creates a bridge between the Association and the members, in order to retain them in membership for a long period of time. This scheme is a self-regulatory continuing professional development system and will be monitored by the Association. With the implementation of this scheme, all previous guidelines issued by AAT Sri Lanka with regard to the upgrading of members to SAT and FMAAT categories and CPD schemes cease to operate.

With the implementation of the CPD Scheme, upgrading of membership categories has been revised as follows, taking into account CPD credits: -

Upgrading to SAT category

Five years (05) of Executive Level Experience in one or more core areas related to the profession after obtaining MAAT title subject to CPD requirement.

Upgrading to FMAAT category

Five years (05) of Managerial Experience in one or more core areas related to the profession after obtaining SAT title subject to CPD requirement.

This CPD scheme will be effective from January 01, 2022 and is subject to further revision.
