Part 2: Getting Your IDP Started

Exploring Career Values and Success

This workshop blends independent and interactive learning to kickstart your Individual Development Plan (IDP).

The workshop consists of pre-workshop activities (completed independently in advance) and a virtual, face-to-face workshop, to help you focus on three foundational aspects: 

  1. Idea Generation: Reflect on your interests, aspirations and societal contributions.
  2. Self-Assessment: Evaluate your technical, transferable and personal skills.
  3. Career Exploration: Define your values and what career success means to you, then research potential paths.

Learning Outcomes
