Last year's PDP
When you are inside an Appraisal, your Current PDPs (i.e. that you have spent the year working towards) are known as your Last Year’s PDPs.
If you completed your last appraisal with Clarity Appraisals 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 Clarity Appraisals you can manually add your last year’s PDPs.
If this is your first ever appraisal for your organisation you do not need to enter this information.
Tick 
on the Last Year’s PDP page.

Proposed PDP
You 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 2 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 Clarity Appraisals 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
at the top left of the table.
- Complete the required sections then click
Agreed PDP
These 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
