This questionnaire is to help you reflect on your job role and to identify any areas where you may benefit from further training and development. The more honest and accurate you are with this, the more effective will be the resulting training and development plan.

You will be assessing yourself against competences from the Health Informatics National Occupational Standards. 

To complete the questionnaire, you will need to write in the relevant competence numbers and titles in the left hand column.  Use the list of competence titles to select the competences that relate to your job role.  Be realistic about which competences to include – they should relate directly to your current job description and/or career aspirations depending on the purpose of the development needs analysis.  (Your Personal Development Plan can focus on future career development once you have shown you can apply the knowledge and skills necessary for your current post.)

Then, referring to the relevant competences to confirm the standards of performance and knowledge and skills required, put a tick in the appropriate box and make any notes in the right hand column.

1.         I am confident I already do this competently.

2.         I require further training and development in some aspects of this area.

3.         I require training and development in most or all of this area.
