The Faculty of Graduate Studies' IDP is a tool to assist postdoctoral researchers in identifying and developing their goals during their fellowship. It is designed to provide a framework for encouraging active participation among postdocs in professional skills training and career management over the course of their postdoctoral position.
The IDP includes a framework that will help to develop a plan for professional skills, but is intended to be supplemented by ongoing consultations with supervisors and/or relevant individuals across the university and beyond.
