What is an Individual Development Plan?
An Individual Development Plan (IDP) is a tool to assist employees in career and personal development. Its primary purpose is to help employees reach short and long-term career goals, as well as improve current job performance. An IDP is not a performance evaluation tool or a one-time activity. It should be looked at like a partnership between the employee and the supervisor. It involves preparation and continuous feedback.
How do I create an IDP?
There is a job aid on the Resource Center that walks you through the entire process of how to upload your IDP into eLMS.
Can I download the IDP form without logging into eLMS?
