What is progress file?

The progress file is a comprehensive resource that helps you plan your future and also think about your skills, attributes and qualities. Working along side the Individual learning Plan (ILP) you can really make a mark on your future through effective planning and self reflection.

The progress file helps you to be more in control of your learning, your personal development and planning for your future. It is about making improvements and seizing opportunities, both personally and academically.

There is an actual file, the Progress File folder.

This is your 'working file' in which to keep evidence of your achievements and other material you use to review your progress and plan your next steps.

Progress File helps you identify and value your skills and qualities, recognise your achievements and then use that information to make better choices for the future. Progress File helps you learn how to sort and select information from your folder to present to various people as you move through stages of your career. It can help you when you need to "self yourself" or explain where you are coming from and where you want to go.
