INTRODUCTION
The current research report aims to include a reflection as well as review of the
personal development plan being prepared earlier in this module. The focus will be made on
amending the existing PDP for the purpose of meeting out the future developmental
requirements. In addition to this, it will also be going to include a reflection after the
submission of the personal development plan and will involve development of an amended
PDP based on that.
ASSESSMENT CRITERION – 3.3
Reviewing and reflecting in regards with the personal development plan is being
considered as the most important activity as it helps in determining the gaps and flaws in the
existing development plan being developed and make changes based on that for creating new
personal development plan (PDP) (Kryscynski and et.al, 2018). Earlier, I have created a
developmental plan which clearly established my own developmental requirements. I have
highlighted different goals that I wanted to achieve such as becoming a role model, learning
in regards with the data protection act, facilitating different conversations, learning ways of
addressing employment laws and so forth. The options that were most suitable for meeting
these requirements of professional development was also used by me. All these processes,
resources and activities being used by me because I believed that these all will support me to
think in regards with my own learning, achievements a well as performance and will help in
planning my social, educational, personal as well as career advancement. However, I was not
able to attain the desired goals as per my anticipations and thus, there is a requirement to
make changes in the previously developed personal development plan.
During the whole course of this module of developing professional practice, I came to
know about the significance of the professional development plan in setting out the
professional requirements. I learned that creating PDP by self is nothing but building the self
as a brand of recruitment consultancy. This is a long-term goal objective which initiates with
recognizing as an authority figure such as developing association with the entities like CIPD.
Since, I have developed the plan within the personal development plan, there are some of the
modifications which I have witnessed happening in my career, learning as well as social areas
(Koda, 2018). For illustration, I have noted that I have enhanced in a number of fields which I
have highlighted in my last PDP. Firstly, I was able to learn different ways of addressing the
employment law issues at work right from recruitment, TUPE and redundancy. Secondly, I
was also successful in grasping knowledge and understanding in relation with the Data
