Abstract

Employability means having three skill sets: traditional academic skills, enterprise and business skills and personal development skills. Personal development skills can be acquired through Personal Development Planning (PDP), a structured and supported process undertaken by an individual to reflect upon their own learning, performance and/or achievement to plan for their personal, educational and career development. This paper reports the experiences of building and running a PDP structure in a degree programme curriculum, explains the status of the accredited PDP modules, and describes proposals for future development.
