To PPDP or not to PPDP? Why you need a Personal Professional Development Plan

摘要

A'PP'...what? If you have decided that you want to work towards one of CILIP's qualifications -Certification, Chartership, or Revalidation -or want to take stock of your skills and knowledge, and see how you could improve them, a Personal Professional Development Plan (PPDP) is a great tool. This article refers primarily to the requirements for Chartership, however the principles of preparing and working through a PPDP for other qualifications remain the same. A PPDP can also be used with new staff to establish their training needs.
