This session is being offered as part of the Teaching and Learning Innovations (TLI) Conference 2021. Learn how to register for TLI 2021 for free.

The Professional and Career Development Record (PCDR) is a tool built into ExperienceGuelph.ca that formally recognizes a student’s involvement in on- and off- campus professional and career development activities, most notably experiential learning. This tool is designed to help a student reflect on their transferable skill development and encourages them to make connections between their experiences and their personal, academic, and career goals. It will also be beneficial for advisors/counsellors including Career Advisors, to use this tool when meeting with students to help plan their EL courses/activities as well as prepare them for interviews. The PCDR will be soft launched in May with a full launch in September. This presentation will showcase the current state of the tool with discussion on upcoming developments that will be ready for fall, including the timeline of launch activities.
