ORD CAREER DEVELOPMENT PLAN
INTRODUCTION
A career development program is being implemented in the
Office of Research and Development to assist each employee in
planning his career. Individuals interested in the program will
formulate a career development plan that reflects his desires and
needs for additional training, job experience, and career oppor-
tunities. The career development program will be flexible and
will accommodate technical and managerial career goals. Such a
program will provide us with a staff of professionals who are
better trained, more experienced, and better prepared to advance
the Agency's goals. The initiative for formulating a career develop-
ment plan rests with the employee. He may seek assistance and
guidance from his supervisor or other counsel in preparing his plan.
In carrying out his plan the employee will be aided by others, but
the success of his plan and his career will depend largely on his
ability, initiative, performance, and achievements.
