Trainees Trainers Educational Supervisors Everyone!
Insufficient numbers Simplistic entries or related to process eg pass the AKT Poor examples provided by ES Limited numbers of PDPs achieved Achieved but no detail given This is poor preparation for real life appraisal
Trainees are expected to add at least one PDP entry into the ePortfolio every six months in addition to those generated through the ESR Trainees should edit the PDP entries which have been generated through the ESR to make them personal and SMART
Be written by trainee in PDP section Be promoted by trainee from learning log (not recommended) Be generated by ES in Competence areas- ES feedback (not recommended) Agreed learning plans (3) at end of ES review are automatically promoted to the PDP section.

Active use PDP entries that confirm reflective practice and an understanding of the PDP process. A spread between completed entries, entries being worked on and entries that will be started on in the future.
Larger aims Aims that require changes in knowledge, skills or attitudes using several sources over a period of time
For each 6m post the PDP should contain 3 entries in addition to those derived from agreed learning plans Where appropriate the PDP entry should fulfil the SMART criteria. PDP entries should deal with larger learning aims using multiple sources of learning over a period of time Entries derived from the ES report should be re written by the trainee to make them personal and SMART A good starting point is what do I want to learn during this post?
Consider using the phrase write yourself a PDP aim relating to.... Concentrate on learning plans appropriate for the next post Invite the trainee to bring to their ES meeting 3 draft PDP objectives
