Personal Development Plan
About this document
A personal development plan (PDP) owned by the employee and agreed with their manager. It records career aspirations, strengths and development needs, sets out learning actions using a mix of on-the-job learning, coaching and formal training, and tracks progress through the year.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
