ABSTRACT

Career planning is the process you will go through to actively manage your career, consider your personal development needs, and decide how best you can access development opportunities. It helps you to identify the factors that are important to you in your chosen profession and build up a picture of your priorities in terms of skills, interests and what motivates you. People who have been in the same role for a while can reassess their career to date and recognise new opportunities, gaps in their knowledge or skills or experience and consider how they can meet these.
