As the Founder of SkillWint, I can say that CPD (Continuing Professional Development) accreditation definitely adds value when you are choosing a cybersecurity course. It shows that the course has been reviewed and approved by an external professional body, which means the content meets certain quality standards and is relevant for career growth.
At the same time, while CPD accreditation is important, it should not be the only factor. What really matters in cybersecurity training is the practical approach — hands-on labs, real-world projects, and mentorship from industry experts. Employers today look for professionals who can apply skills in live scenarios, not just those with certificates.
At SkillWint, our cybersecurity programs are designed to provide both — recognition through globally relevant certifications and deep practical exposure. This way, learners can showcase credibility while also building confidence to solve real-world security challenges.
So yes, CPD accreditation is a good sign of quality, but make sure the course also focuses on practical skills, global relevance, and career readiness. That’s what makes a cybersecurity program truly valuable.
