“Hubken has helped us expand the range of our education, particularly as we have limited resources and time”

The Royal College of Podiatry (RCPod) is the leading professional body and trade union for podiatrists in the UK. It represents and supports thousands of clinicians working across the NHS and private practice, while also setting and upholding professional standards in line with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
A core responsibility for its members is the ongoing requirement to maintain Continuing Professional Development (CPD), ensuring clinical practice remains safe, current, and evidence-based. However, with increasing patient demand and heavy clinical workloads, finding time for structured learning and compliance reporting had become a growing challenge.
RCPod identified a strategic need for a modern, centralised digital learning environment, one that could make CPD more accessible, reduce administrative burden, and support its long-term mission of being the UK’s leading source of podiatric clinical knowledge.
RCPod members were working in high-pressure clinical environments with limited time for mandatory CPD. At the same time, the organisation needed to maintain consistent compliance and accurate audit trails across a large, geographically dispersed membership base.
This created several key challenges:
“Hubken helps us a lot with the management of the platform. They have a lot of good ideas on how we can create, adapt and implement new content or new features. They help us improve the performance and save us a lot of time and effort.”

RCPod partnered with Hubken to implement a highly flexible Hubken LMS to serve as their central educational hub.
“Help has been provided in creating the workspace, developing content and enhancing the features that are available in the software.”

The implementation of the Hubken LMS has significantly modernised RCPod’s approach to CPD delivery and member engagement.
“Hubken has helped us expand the range of our education, particularly as we have limited resources and time. The new LMS gives us the chance to reach more people, more often with more course offerings. Furthermore, the platform’s reporting functionality has proven invaluable for tracking performance, user activity, and other key metrics.”
