P6: Discuss methods of continuing professional development and training relevant to the career plan.
CPD stands for continuing professional development. Continuing professional development is the process of tracking and recording the skills documented as well as what range of knowledge and experience that you gain. This is either recorded formally or informally beyond any additional training provided. The purpose of CPDis done through the use of a portfolio documenting your development as a professional worker. This overall helps reflect on what you learn and how to develop as a working professional.
Once I finish my BTEC Business Extended Diploma Level 3 and achieve my designated target at Distinction Grade, I will be looking for jobs within certain bank branches as well as looking for businesses that offer management courses or maybe even assistant manager of a business.
Investment2020 Management Course
Investment2020 is a firm that provides management courses for students once they have finished their education at college and that Investment2020 host a wide range of different courses within management which is an area that I am interested in. This will help me achieve many new skills that i may not already have such as management skills and the abiltiy to show good leadership towards a group. I can also apply some of my skills that i have already developed such as time management skills as well as good organisational skills and use these effectively when on my management cousre within a business. This overall will give me the experience that i will need to apply for a management role within a business and that this could help me obtain my future career that I have planned out for myself.
Barclays Management Training
Barclays are one of the most well known banks across the globe and that thye offer training programs for people that are willing to improve their management skills as well as to become a professional Bank Manager for Barclays in the future. By having many individuals seeking training can mean that more Bank Managers are available within the banking industry and that the job is done correctly and that each individual will have the experience to take on the job role. This will include intensive initial training for each candidate as well as on going professional education within the banking industry. The purpose of these training schemes is to tailor each individual to improve on their needs and requirments in order to make them successful within the working environment and that by attending these working programs can result in each graduate to have a future career within banking. This overall would be effective for myself so by taking more training can make me more of an option for many banks and that I get a job within one of the highest banks within the UK or somewhere in Europe.
Santander Management Training
Another option that i have is the opportunity to take up a training course with Santander on management training so that I could be more better suited for the job role and to show that I have the ability and work ethic in order to complete all tasks at hand. By training on one of these courses will show the employees that i have a good work ethic to be applied within the working environment and that I asm working at the highest possible level they are offering. By attending many different types of courses such as this one will overall help my skills and abilities that I have and how I can develop them even further. By offering these courses of management, this overall will help myself as well as others with their over leadership abilities and management skills that they may or may not have already and that their knowledge can be applied to help benefit the business in the future.
