Dear all,

I have just registered for the Route B programme of CILIP and I am trying
to compile my Personal Professional Development Plan (PPDP).

It is difficult to work out a Plan for two years when the world of
information is constantly changing and there is way of really knowing
where you will be in a few years time.

It can be argued that it might be more difficult for people on the Route B
programme. Under the 2002 transitional programme, people registered for
Route A can get supervision in their own workplace on an approved CILIP
programme. For people like myself, it will be a long two years probably
accumulating so much material that it will take another two years just to
cut through it all to produce a 4000 word essay.

Do people find that compiling the PPDP is easier to do with a supervisor
on a Route A programme than doing so on your own or with a volunteer on
the Route B programme?

Grateful for any advice or words of wisdom from people chartered or
planning to do so.

Thanks,

Alex Seymour
