Using your IET Career Manager CPD record as part of your annual appraisal

The CPD Activity Report that you can create in Career Manager can be used not only as your personal record of development but also for demonstrating your CPD to your employer, colleagues and clients as well as the IET as part of our CPD Monitoring Scheme.

 

Have you printed out your CPD report from Career Manager to use as part of your appraisal with your employer? Was it well received?
  • When I used it - over a year ago - it bore no relationship to the registration process or team. I thought I was feeding data into my application portfolio, but it turned out that I had to print it out and submit by hand. I understand that this disconnect is being addressed.
  • I'm guessing, Alex, that you would have been using Career Manger version 2? Version 3 is an order of magnitude better!



    As part of my self-assessment, I did provide my manager with my Detailed CPD Report for use in this years appraisal (held at the beginning of January). I also sent him my Professional Development Plan, and both of these documents were created with just a few button pushes - fantastic!



    I was a little disappointed with the reception I got - but that's not down to the tool!! ;)



    Best Regards,
  • Yes, indeed, version 2. Now it has settled down, the new version appears to be well received.
