The following checklist is designed to help departments ensure information and resources for PDP are accurate and up-to-date. In addition to those included, and to reflect local variations in practices and approach, there is also space for departments to add their own items as necessary. As always, should any questions or issues arise, please contact Learning Development Manager, Steve Rooney
( sgr3@le.ac.uk
).
