ABSTRACT

In this short chapter, the focus is on offering ideas for reflecting on and capturing your personal development. There are sections in this chapter on using a personal development journal and other methods of recording learning. A short explanation of process notes is included and the importance of keeping comments and feedback from your peers and tutors is stressed, so that they can be referred to later. Heather Dale and Jayne Godward also talk about using the personal development group to explore your learning and reflect on insights gained about self. Some creative ways of reviewing your progress and personal development are offered here. Finally, continuing professional development after practitioner training is discussed.
