CPD has been a farce as long as I've been a sol [some 12 or so years]. For it to work, you either need something properly policed, with the solicitors having to provide the details and the certificates to the SRA so they can check them, or some kind of compulsory training.

This is just rubber stamping the SRA's indifference, and their knowledge that most sols either scrap around for courses close to the deadline or they just didn't bother keeping a record at all. The one time the SRA visited my firm, they didn't ask to see the CPD records.
