PDP resources in MyPAD

MyPAD is the university e-portfolio in which you can keep all your records, reflective notes, ideas and plans in one place, making it easy for you to update and store records electronically. Included is the site Welcome to MyPAD which has been designed to help you chart your journey through university, including learning through work-based experiences and volunteering activities.

In addition to the Welcome to MyPAD site there are three other sites already in all your MyPAD e-portfolio:

• Skills Development - a set of templates to help you track your academic and graduate skills
• Review & Reflection - a set of templates to prompt you to evaluate, review and reflect in more detail
  
• Action Planning - a set of templates to help you develop your action planning skills, with suggested actions for next steps

Activities are provided both for those new to creating PDP records and further exercises for those familiar with professional practice and review.
