A PDP is one of the most effective ways to turn your goals into a reality. Whether youre looking to change career, build on your current skills or simply learn something new, a PDP will help you to plan for the future and manage your own learning and development.
A good plan should clearly define your career goals and the objectives, time frames, competency development and other outcomes that will help you meet those goals. They should be specific, and include dates for you to review your progress, as well as any meetings with line managers.
A professional development plan is created by the manager working closely with the staff member to identify the necessary skills and resources to support the staff members career goals and the organizations business needs. Professional development for staff members begins when a new member joins your team.
Be clear and specific Explain why you are seeking professional development, what areas you want to focus on, and what courses, workshops, or certifications you have in mind. Youll need to research this before your meeting, but being specific will help your manager understand your request more clearly.
Steps to Create a Professional Development Plan ASSESS where you are now. IDENTIFY your specific career goals and the skills, competencies, and experience you need to achieve them. DECIDE on a strategy and timeline. EXECUTE your plan. EVALUATE your progress.
