Criteria: P6 produce a personal career development plan. [CT, RL, SM]

What type of information do I require?Task 5For P6, you have to produce a career development plan for a chosen career. You must select an appropriate career or job, investigate what skills, knowledge and qualifications will be required and produce a plan, including time deadlines of how you can achieve your goal.

For example, if you select a job as a games developer, you need to research the qualifications and the experience required. You need to identify what professional qualifications are required, what colleges run relevant courses and how long this will take. You also need to research opportunities for work-experience. This should be linked to P4 & P5. A checklist on the next slide should help!
