What is a personal development plan (PDP)?
The PDP is a tool to assist in planning your career for your future practice and is designed to facilitate both your personal and professional growth by:-
- establishing individual learning goals related to your professional practice by aligning your goals with the RN Domains for the registered nurse or midwife or similar
- developing personalized strategies /performance criteria for achieving those goals
If required, the National competency standards for the registered nurse and for midwives can be accessed at the NMBA:-https://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/Codes-Guidelines Statements/Codes-Guidelines.aspx#competencystandards
Developing your learning goals-
Developing your learning goals is a personal and unique process. The goals you establish should be individualized to your own needs and focused on what you want to achieve over the next 5-10 years of practice.
Learning goals might include:-
- improving your knowledge of a specific topic, policy, procedure
- achieving competence in clinical skills or use of specific equipment or technology
- identifying a post graduate course of study
- improving communication skills with the interdisciplinary team and patients
- managing complex patient care situations
As you begin to develop your learning goals ask yourself the following questions:
- Are my goals clearly stated?
- Do they adequately describe what I intend to learn?
- Are my learning goals realistic and achievable?
