How the
Professionat
Development
Program
Works


The PDP  includes a combination of on-the-job and formal learning, regular
feedback and counseling, and exposure to different projects and management
styles. In addition, an adviser is assigned to meet with each new staff
member  to provide guidance and assistance so that new staff can smoothly
adjust to the organization and the work of GAO. Specifically, the adviser has
discussions with new staff monthly during their first 6 months and bimonthly
thereafter. Advisers also talk with managers and supervisors to ensure that
new  staff receive appropriate feedback, coaching, and on-the-job-learning.
Each new staff member, together with an adviser, creates an Individual
Development  Plan (IDP).The IDP identifies personal goals, outlines preferred
assignments, and sets time frames for attending formal training sessions. The
IDP also identifies relevant activities, including orientation sessions, speakers
programs, shadowing of senior staff, congressional hearings, and mentoring.
