If you completed your last appraisal with Appraisal Toolkit your Last Year’s PDPs are added to your appraisal automatically.
If it is the first year you are completing an appraisal for an organisation using Appraisal Toolkit you can manually add your last year’s PDPs.

Proposed PDPYou can suggest PDPs you think would be beneficial for you to work towards over the next year in your appraisal as Proposed PDPs in section 3 of your appraisal. Your Appraiser will review these and accept, change or reject them. If they are accepted they will be added to your Agreed PDP for next year.
All PDP items should be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Time bounded). With Appraisal Toolkit there is no limit to the number of Proposed PDP Items you can add. It is suggested you use this section if there are areas within your practice in particular you wish to improve.
- Go to your appraisal and click "Proposed PDP" in your left navigation bar
- Click Image Added at the top of the table. Complete the Details tab and click Image Added

Agreed PDPThese items are added by your Appraiser after your appraisal meeting. They are the PDPs that were agreed upon by yourself and your Appraiser during your appraisal meeting that you will spend the next year working towards.
When your appraisal is “Complete”, these will become your “Current” PDPs.
