PDP

What is PDP?

PDP stands for Personal Development Planning, and is a means by which you review the learning and study skills and employability skills you have developed, in order to identify any weaker areas, and to plan how you are going to address these areas, and to record your acheivement.

PDP at the University of Hull

PDP provides a range of tools to help you in your current studies and to maximise your employability for your future career. 

Arrangements for PDP may vary slightly between departments, and some PDP is embedded in academic programmes, but for personal support, arrange to meet with your supervisor or a suitable alternative to reflect on your achievements, to discuss your personal development, and to agree an action plan for the future. PDP will encourage you to evaluate your own performance in a secure and 'safe' environment.
