Cyprus

Registered Professional Social Worker
Regulator: Registration Council of Professional Social Workers of Cyprus (Συμβούλιο Εγγραφής Επαγγελματιών Κοινωνικών Λειτουργών), under the Deputy Ministry of Social Welfare / Ministry of Labour, Welfare and Social Insurance
CPDSocial work is a statutorily regulated, protected-title profession in Cyprus under the Registration of Professional Social Workers Law (Law 126(I)/2000, as amended). Registration requires a recognised social work qualification and entry on the register maintained by the Registration Council. A practising registration applies, but no Cyprus statute identified in this pass prescribes a fixed number of periodic CPD hours as a condition of renewal. CPD is professionally encouraged (e.g., through the Cyprus Association of Social Workers), but not statutorily mandated with an hour count. Primary statute text and council renewal pages could not be retrieved in this research pass, so treat the 'no mandated CPD hours' finding as provisional.
No specific live / interactive hour requirement

Home study: N/A - no statutory CPD hour requirement identified

Board notes: Regulator/registration council sits under the social-welfare ministry rather than health. Title 'social worker' is protected. No dedicated statutory CPD-hours renewal scheme identified. Official council/statute pages were provenance/network-blocked during this pass; determination rests on general regulatory knowledge rather than a verified current statute reading.

Cyprus

Registered Psychologist (practising licence)
Regulator: Cyprus Board for the Registration of Psychologists (Συμβούλιο Εγγραφής Ψυχολόγων), under the Ministry of Health
CPDPsychologist is a statutorily regulated, protected-title profession in Cyprus under the Registration of Psychologists Laws (originally Law 68(I)/1995, as amended). Entry to the register requires an accredited psychology degree plus supervised practice; specialist titles (e.g., clinical, counselling, educational/school psychology) require a relevant postgraduate qualification and supervised experience. Practitioners hold a practising registration, but no Cyprus statute identified in this pass mandates a fixed number of periodic continuing professional development (CPD) hours as a condition of renewal. CPD is professionally encouraged and is only formally required for practitioners who voluntarily hold and renew the EFPA EuroPsy certificate (renewed roughly every 7 years, with documented CPD). Primary statute text and the board's own renewal pages could not be retrieved in this research pass, so treat the 'no mandated CPD hours' finding as provisional.
No specific live / interactive hour requirement

Home study: N/A - no statutory CPD hour requirement identified

Board notes: Regulator sits under the Ministry of Health. Register distinguishes general psychologists from specialist titles (clinical, counselling, educational/school, etc.). Counselling psychology exists only as a specialist psychologist title under this board, not as a separate profession. EuroPsy CPD requirements apply only to the voluntary EuroPsy certificate, not to national registration. Official board site and CyLaw statute text were provenance/network-blocked during this pass; the mandatory-CPD determination is based on general regulatory knowledge and the reachable EFPA member page, not a verified current statute reading.

Frequently asked questions
Do CE requirements differ by license type in Cyprus?

Yes. Social work, counseling, psychology, marriage & family therapy, and behavior-analysis credentials each have their own requirements, mandated topics, and renewal cycles in Cyprus. This page lists each one separately.

CE requirements in other jurisdictions
