CPD that counts towards your registration.
NMBA requires registered nurses and midwives to complete a minimum of 20 hours of CPD each year. OBA's modules are Australian-context, evidence-informed, and produce verifiable CPD evidence — a completion certificate, assessment record and reflective prompt aligned to the NMBA standards for practice.
