Benefits of PDP and reflective learning

• It makes you think about what youre doing and
  how other people see your work.
• It has enabled me to plan better and organise my
  thoughts. It gives you the time to say what you
  truly feel about a particular project or
  experience.
• Writing a reflective journal has enabled me to
  channel my thoughts further, I have been
  motivated to break-out of the usual mould and
  really think about ways in which my actions could
  lead to more success.

What I will cover during this 15 minute session
following on from Louise.

• How personal development planning (pdp) can help
  you to become an effective career planner and
  enhance your employability.
• How to make a good career decision.

18
What employers say

• "Few students are able to articulate what they
  have gained from their experience in higher
  education." ( Association of Graduate Recruiters,
  1995)

19
Steps to making a good career decision.

• Knowing yourself - looking at your skills, values
  and personality - Analysing where your strengths
  and weaknesses lie.
• Exploring opportunities Gathering information on
  the opportunities open to you.
• Taking action.

20
Often students spend

• Lots of time on opportunity awareness gathering
  information.
• Lots of time trying to implement the decision.
• Not enough time on personal development planning
  and self awareness.
