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
