PRACTICAL WORKSHEET

CPD development action plan

Plan a specific development opportunity, the support needed and a review date.

SELF-MANAGED RECORD

Use the worksheet for your own planning and reflection. For a formal submission, use the current ICE or IStructE form. Completing a worksheet does not certify competence.

What to record

01

Objective

Specific enough that you will know whether you met it.

02

Why

The gap it addresses: ideally one you identified yourself.

03

How

Course, secondment, reading, shadowing, a piece of work.

04

By when

A date, not 'this year'.

05

How I will know it worked

What you will be able to do that you cannot do now.

06

Attribute area

Where it strengthens your evidence.

Use it well

  • Objectives that respond to your own identified gaps read far better than a list of available courses.
  • Include health, safety and welfare training, and keep it current.
