SCH52: Promote professional development
Unit Ref L/602/2578
1. Understand principles of professional development
1.3 Compare the use of different sources and systems of support for professional development
There are many types of systems and support formats for professional development. A thorough induction from the beginning of employment or placement can highlight possible future training requirements and the staff handbook with policies and procedures can be issued. Once an induction is completed the member of staff will have several sit down meetings during the 90 day trial period, this will allow time to organise any gaps in training, allow the staff member/ volunteer or student to familiarise themselves with the routine and

When key workers are assigned learning journeys these are moderated to ensure that learning journeys are up to date and of a high standard. This highlights any issues with training which may be required to support the staff member in effective recording, appropriate planning and next steps. Audits and moderating ensure best practice is being maintained as well as supporting the development of the staff member.
Staff observations are also a useful system to monitor staff and student practices; once the observation of the worker is complete a discussion between the worker and observer takes place. We reflect upon their interactions with the child/children as well as the child/children’s interactions with them, the effectiveness of the play, resources or activity and constructive feedback is given, with points to consider and improvements to work on if necessary.
Being assigned a mentor is useful method of training. I often mentor students on placement from our local college; this involves giving opportunity to further their practical knowledge and skills, giving guidance on how to approach certain activities, understanding the role of a play worker, as well as signing off attendance and
Learning can be the result of many activities which can include formal classes and training sessions, on the job training and mentoring or self-study. Every time we encounter something new, there is an opportunity to learn and improve skills.

The purpose of this unit is to assess the learner’s knowledge, understanding and skills required to promote the professional duty to maintain the currency of knowledge and skills and the need to continually reflect on and improve practice.
2 . Explain the importance of observing and analysing children’s and young people’s play. Through observing a child, it helps you to understand and be aware of the child’s interests
Within my role, it is important to continually improve knowledge and practice so I am aware of how to give the best diverse and equal care to children, stay fully up to date with all standards and legislations.
In my role it is important to continually improve my knowledge and practices. In health and social care ways of working and legislation as well as good practice are constantly changing. Therefore it is important to keep up to date with training and also any changes in legislation. This will enable me to deliver the best service possible to the tenants I support and also enables me to keep staff upto date with any changes in the way that we work. It also forms part of The codes of practice for social care workers to keep skills and knowledge up to date.
There are a number of barriers to professional development within my role and a number of things which you need to think about when booking/planning training for your staff. I have outlined the potential barriers which I am likely to face within my role:
Through induction, each single member of staff learns and understand about the roles and position of the other colleagues. New colleagues can learn from the other team members who are more experienced. I encourage sharing of knowledge and skills by coaching, mentoring and helping less experienced colleagues, so they can become confident and fully capable to handle their practices better.
Young children learn and grow everyday. Especially, young children, the ages three years to five years old, learn important skills while they play with friends and interact with their teachers. Janice J. Beaty (2014) states that for young children, “play is their way of learning” (p. 167) Thus, teachers need to observe children while they play and assess the development of the child because “Knowing the development of a young child helps a teacher to plan the curriculum, to set up activities for individuals, or to ask for special help when necessary” (Beaty, 2014, p. 3).
1. Briefly explain how the CIPD HR Profession Map defines the HR profession, including the professional areas, the bands and the behaviours.
This worldwide phenomenon has been brought into focus by various health care reforms and other system-level developments (Farrar, Ryan, Ross, and Ludbrook, 2000). Meaning there are more claims on resources than there are resources available, some form of priority setting must occur. This making resources are scarce and there is a need, regardless of how many resources are available in total, to make choices about what to fund and what not to fund.
Professional development is linked to nursing having the ability to provide quality care, achieve personal and professional satisfaction to their client through evidence base practice, and advance their career. The Magnet founders also recognize that nursing is about more than bedside skills and clinical techniques. Higher education can help nurses develop critical thinking and better communication skills, as well as openness to new ideas and new models of care – resulting in the highest possible standard of patient care (Preparing for magnet status: finding a BSN program, 2011).
