Professional Growth & Promotion

Professional Growth

Personal Learning Plans and Development
CPDME supports learners in creating personalized development plans that outline their specific learning goals. There are multiple tools offered, such as one-on-one consultations and guidance, encouraging participants to do a personal learning plan, providing references for participants to access later, as well as post program tools, such as chart audits. The CPDME team helps individuals identify appropriate learning activities and track their progress. This resource is critical for learners who need tailored support in their professional growth.
