1. Create your own individual PDP that shows evidence of your development achieved in the past 12 months and applies your planned development for the next 12 months.
To achieve this, you must demonstrate how you manage yourself. This should include how you manage stress, positive thinking and assertiveness to produce your own career development plans. You should create plans for goal setting, a personal skills audit and a personal SWOT. From this, you can then create your PDP.
Within your PDP include examples and evidence that demonstrate advanced learning methods, learning resources, learning timescales, expected outcomes and any necessary communications that may support your learning and development.
2. Produce an illustrated report that assesses how strategies for skills development and lifelong learning may enable career development for you and your team colleagues.
To achieve this, evaluate concepts associated with career development strategies in order to consider how the skills and career development of employees through integrated personal development planning may support employee motivation and, ultimately, employee retention and progression.
