Recommendations for Trainees!!
• Begin using myIDP early in your doctoral or postdoctoral training.!
• Complete all of the myIDP exercises—but don’t expect to complete them in a day, a week, or even a month. Career planning takes time, and should be an iterative process during which you periodically reassess your skills, values, interests, and career goals.!
• Take advantage of myIDP’s career planning resources and those available at your institution and through your disciplinary societies.!
• Print your myIDP goals and opt to receive deadline reminders to keep you on track.!
• Don't be afraid to discuss your career plans with your mentors. !
• Consider sharing all or part of your IDP during discussions with mentors. Make this a separate conversation, not tacked on to the end of a standard research-focused meeting.!

INTRODUCING myIDP: A CAREER PLANNING TOOL FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCS
Introduction!
• Individual Development Plans (IDPs) can help graduate students and postdocs clarify professional development needs and set attainable career goals. !
• Survey data show that trainees would be more likely to develop an IDP if they had assistance with the process.!
• Few trainees have access to in-person career counselling services. !
• myIDP fills this gap, by providing online guidance through the process of long- and short-term career planning, and facilitating access to career resources tailored to PhD-level scientists.!
Features of myIDP!!
myIDP guides trainees through the process of creating an Individual Development Plan:!!!!!!!!!!!Features include:!• Exercises to help you examine your skills, interests, and
values. !• A list of 20 scientific career paths with a prediction of which
ones best fit your skills and interests. !• A tool for setting strategic goals for the coming year, with
optional reminders to keep you on track.!• Articles and resources to guide you through the process.!• Options to save materials online and print them for further
review and discussion.!• Ability to select which portion of your IDP you wish to share
with advisors, mentors, or others.!

Recommendations for Graduate Programs & Postdoc Offices!
!
• Publicize availability of myIDP to both mentors and trainees. Convey to mentors that students & postdocs want assistance with their career planning.!
• Offer workshops or courses to demonstrate myIDP and help trainees begin the process.!
• Engage with your campus Career Center, if available. The exercises in myIDP can facilitate trainees’ discussions with career counselors. !
• Formally integrate myIDP into your institution’s training programs. For example, some institutions require students or postdocs to complete an IDP annually. myIDP allows trainees to submit a portion of their IDP as proof of completion.!
!
myIDP is self-explanatory!
