Or can you talk about things that you've been developing over your career? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708727154 2023-09-18 12:34:54 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708727154 can all your evidence be recorded similarly i.e. journal entries or a variety such as blog posts, presentations etc? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708731111 2023-09-18 12:37:18 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708731111 Do all of our 10-12 areas have to be from the same section? Or can they be 10-12 areas be from different sections? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708755595 2023-09-18 12:51:31 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708755595 Even though we are only selecting 10-12 areas, is it worth doing initial ratings over all skills over time (just to give yourself a general overview)? Or should we only ever just focus on that 10-12 areas? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708758751 2023-09-18 12:53:19 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708758751 Can the starting rating be our starting rating at the beginning of our current position, and our current rating be us, today, if we are looking at our development so far? To clarify - I feel like I’ve made a lot of progress in some areas over the last year, but that development won’t be tracked if my initial rating is the same as my current rating, today, and I’d lose some opportunities to document/reflect on that progress. admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708759563 2023-09-18 12:53:46 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708759563 So every time you do something that develops on one of your chosen PKSB areas you are supposed to change your current rating? And are you supposed to write in the comments at the start of Professional Registration or the end when you’re about to submit? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708768990 2023-09-18 12:59:20 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708768990 I've worked as a Library Assistant, partnered with libraries as a researcher and creative professional, and now work in outreach/engagement at a library and volunteer for two community libraries. However, I don't have a information/records management masters. Would CILIP membership followed by Certification/Chartership through PR, using the PKSB, be enough for me to apply for librarian positions? https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708783249 2023-09-18 13:06:54 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708783249 How long does PR take, on average for the different levels? https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708783891 2023-09-18 13:07:15 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708783891 How is Chartership impacted if you change jobs/contracts before being ready to submit your portfolio? What about any periods of unemployment? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708792417 2023-09-18 13:11:27 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708792417 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708823056 Can chartership be undertaken if one is currently unemployed?]]> 2023-09-18 13:27:42 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708823056 I’m a bit confused about how the PKSB comes into the evaluative statement and your evidence. Within both are you referring to the areas you are focussing on within the PKSB tool or the assessment criteria? admin2966 https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708860191 2023-09-18 13:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708860191 Are links to digital evidence acceptable evidence? For example, if we created/manage a library social media presence, could we offer the account itself as evidence? Or if we've been working on reading lists for library users, offer links to the relevant sways, along with reflection? https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708875226 2023-09-18 13:53:50 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708875226 How wide does the 'wider context' need to be? For example, as a public school librarian, does this extend to other school libraries? Libraries in general? Or does it need too go further to information professionals in general? https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708933976 2023-09-18 14:22:57 UTC https://padlet.com/admin2966/pr/wish/2708933976
