PhD Professional Development: What is an Individual Development Plan?

Individual Development Plans (IDPs) are a customized roadmap for your professional training and goals and will enable you to make the most of your doctoral education. The IDP process will prompt you to reflect on your skills and your career aspirations and help you translate those into specific actions and achieve new skills and professional goals. Join us for an interactive workshop that walks you through self-assessments in skills, values, and interests, and sets you up to develop and write a plan to be shared with your PhD mentor.
