...Development Planning For Postgraduate Research Students Postgraduate Personal Development Planning 1 INTRODUCTION Personal Development Planning (PDP) is a process already present in most PhD supervision and study practices. PDP is ‘a structured and supported process undertaken by an individual to reflect upon their own learning, performance and/or achievement and to plan for their personal, educational and career development’ (QAA 2001). This handbook provides guidelines for Postgraduate Research students at Queen’s on what PDP involves and to help you to get the most out of the process. Please note that there may be slight variations or specific requirements for you in your School or subject area. Key features of PDP: • PDP is an ongoing process, not a single document, nor is it carried out at a single point in time. • It provides you with the opportunity to plan, reflect on and record your progress, development and achievements. • PDP formalises good practice in working for and supervising a research degree. • PDP is a structured and supported process. The structure and support is provided by: - The Skills Analysis Questionnaire - The Postgraduate Skills Training Programme (PSTP) - Records of meetings with your supervisor(s) - Training plans - Formal reviews – 3 month, differentiation, and annual monitoring - Records and evidence of your achievement - Your evaluation and reflection of your progress, achievements and skills - Your research diary or log book or project management...

In these previous English classes, most of the writing has been research papers.

...the first thing that comes to the mind of students who are about to graduate. To find and to have a job is the main purpose of the students in studying. But how high is the possibility of college graduates to find jobs especially those BSHRM graduates? A lot of people are saying that the work of an HRM graduate isn’t easy. There are people who despise this course because most of the HRM graduates end up being a cook or a waiter.

Thus, many upcoming college students are encouraged to take up this course because they saw that there are a lot of great opportunities that awaits them after graduating. 3 Statement of the Problems This research paper provides information about the perceptions of the students of the course BSHRM about job opportunities. BSHRM students think that they will be provided information about the possible job opportunities and to give ideas to the students of what jobs they could have after graduation. 1.

...life and with business requires us to move in the direction of the goals we set for ourselves. Without goals we lack focus and direction. Goal setting allows us to take control of our life’s direction, and gives us a guide to determine if we are actually succeeding. To accomplish our goals, we need to know how to set them, it is a process that starts with consideration of what we want to achieve and ends with a lot of hard work to get there. Effective goal setting is the surest path to success. “They used their failures as learning experience and were not deterred from continuing to set goals. Instead each man held to a belief in himself as he continued to pursue goals in which he so strongly believed.” (Wilson & Dobson, 2008, p.16) Everything is a learning experience, the good and the bad, has something to teach us, it’s important that we pay attention to what that is. “On the contrary, you are likely to achieve goals that you align with your values and carefully developed, and that are supported by others.” (Sternberg &Wetzel S.R. 2001, pg. 7)Setting goals that motivate you is the first step to being successful, something that is important, that has value to me, is getting a degree in computers. This degree in computers allows to me to find a career in the computer industry, or I can work for my husband’s production company.

...is out of their reach. In order to be able to provide yourself or your family with a short at a better life college is something that must be accomplished. When you are able to fulfill your goal of finishing your college education it makes looking to the future a little easier. In this particular research paper I will tell you how returning to college the best decision for my life was. How earning a college degree will make life easier? When you think about college and a career you want to choose a career that will bring you joy and that will never seem like you are tired. Some of us think that earning lot of money is the most important thing when choosing a career. It’s not, being able to enjoy what you do will make life easier and seem as if you are not working but doing a hobby. Remembering back at my high school days a teacher told us to find something we are good at and enjoy and make a career out of it. I am learning the importance of not picking a career that has the highest earning potential because it could be a job that I am miserable. Choosing something you love will never feel like work. When a person finish college and obtain a degree they are more than likely able to earn more money than a high school or GED graduate. A person should never get into a career that will have them stressed out on a daily basic’s. If we keep in mind that working should be awarding and fun, then there will be no time for stress. Finally, when you are doing something...

...perceives, thinks about and reacts to its various environments” (Schein 1996). With this in mind, it is widely accepted that organisational culture not only has an impact on performance (Brown 2008; Andersen et al 2009) but has been described as one of the most powerful and stable forces operating in organizations (Lamond 2003). The Competing Values Framework This paper will use the Competing Values Framework (CVF, Figure 1) to address the aforementioned topic of corporate culture’s effect on organisational commitment, as it is regarded as the most popular approach for assessing the performance of a company (Gregory et al, 2009). The model itself is comprised of two main axis, the first reflecting the dimensions of change and stability within an organizations’ culture. One end of this axis represents a prominence towards flexibility and spontaneity, whereas the other end denotes implications of focus on stability control and order (Burns & Stalker 1968). The other axis that is included to create this model represents the struggle of balancing the internal organisation and the external business environment. One end of this axis would imply a strong company focus on integration and buffering to protect and sustain the current organisation,...
