The researcher pinpoints and examines personality, technical proficiency, training and development, perception, and its impact on participants' attitudes and level of commitment to their jobs about CPD practices. As Saudi professionals participate increasingly in CPD, the researcher examines their demands and expectations. The research also focuses on the relationship between professional achievement and professional attitudes. Design/Methodology/Approach: The researcher used a stratified sampling technique to find 100 professionals in top management roles in the public and private sectors of various industries. In this study, the researcher used structured questionnaires and interviews to gather primary data from 100 samples from various portfolios. The researcher uses one-way ANOVA and multiple regression analysis to analyze how professionals see themselves and their devotion to their jobs. Through "Multiple Regression Analysis," professionals' success in their fields is demonstrated. The search for theoretical model fit is conducted using structural equation modelling (SEM). The structural bond is examined using the "multivariate" statistical technique known as "structural equation modelling." Findings: The findings show that professional achievement is directly impacted by attitude and perception of CPD. The SEM results show that knowing the dependence of each element listed and how they relate to one another improves CPD and productivity. According to the connection results, technical proficiency and personality are significantly correlated with how professionals see CPD activities. Implications: Findings of this study will be helpful for human resource managers and policy makers to focus on CPD practices. Novelty: The research examines and proves that Attitude on CPD has a direct effect on professional success.
