Personal and Professional Development Plan (PPDP)

By developing a Personal and Professional Development Plan (PPDP), you will have the opportunity to integrate your graduate studies into a plan for development that reaches beyond graduation.  As you acquire knowledge and experiences, you will be invited to answer questions.  You will also be asked to reflect on how what you have learned can and should impact the type of person and professional you want to be.

In addition to questions and personal reflection, the Faculty Cohort Advisors will facilitate a workshop on how to define your goals, strategies and benchmarks to make your development plan practical and useful. These workshops occur every Practicum session, and they will include the presentation and use of tested models in plan development.
