\nInstructions on Assessment:
\nTo be submitted as one document:
\nPersonal Reflective Statement and Action Plan (Programme Learning Outcomes;
\n4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.1, 4.3.1, 4.3.1, 4.1.3, 4.2.2.)
\n(Individual Submission: 2000 words plus appendices; to be submitted during the
\nMay assessment period \u2013 date TBC)
\nSection A: Individual reflective statement on career readiness (1000 words):
\nYou are required to identify a specific employment position suitable for your degree area.
\nThis may be a year-long placement, internship, or graduate level position and must be
\nspecific to the Accounting, Finance or Economics sector according to your programme.
\nUsing specific examples from your experiences on this module, produce a Personal
\nReflective Statement which documents the progress you have made in developing the
\nnecessary skills and acumen to support your suitability for that position.
\nReflection is a very important activity. It is much more than simply evaluating your
\nprogress i.e., what you did well and what you did badly. The act of reflecting on
\nexperiences involves considering what you did and why, thinking about what you have
\nlearned from that experience, then considering what you could do differently the next time
\nto improve your practice. This will require you to research and read about the skills you
\nare reflecting on and are important for the position upon which you have chosen to frame
\nyour reflection. You should draw upon the reading materials you have engaged with
\nthroughout the semester and reference these accordingly.
\nYour statement should reflect on the progress you have made to date to develop your
\ncareer readiness for your chosen position. You should include specific reference to the
\ngroup presentation you did in week 4, and your team\u2019s output for project 2. You should
\nconsider the experience you gained from these activities and the skills you developed
\nwhich will strengthen your application for the position you chose. Your statement must
\nalso have, as an appendix, a copy of your outputs from both projects one and two.
\nWhen writing your statement, some of the skills\/behaviours you could include and reflect
\non are:
\n\uf0b7 Collaboration and teamwork
\n\uf0b7 Commercial awareness
\n\uf0b7 Resilience
\n\uf0b7 Presentation skills
\nHowever, you can reflect on any skills\/behaviours that you justify as important to your
\ncareer readiness as an AFM student but you should aim to design your reflection around
\nthe skills and acumen required from the position you have selected.
\nYou should use an appropriate reflective model to structure your work (for example, Gibbs\u2019
\nreflective cycle) or devise your own.<\/p>\n

\nAssessment instructions continue, on the following page.
\nSection B: Career Action Plan (1000 words):
\nNow you have reflected on your suitability for an employment position, it is time to draw up
\na personal career action plan. In this section of your assessment, you should consider
\nyour goals for the remainder of your time at university and your career goals for the future.
\nYou may want to discuss the specific area of industry you would like to go into for
\nexample, wealth management, auditing, or analytics.
\nSpecifically, you should create an action plan that focuses on three core skills or
\nattributes you want to develop throughout your remaining time at university to ensure you
\nare career ready when you graduate, and three career goals for the future. You should
\nhighlight in your action plan how development of these attributes will support you
\nin meeting the three career goals you have specified.
\nTo help you with this, you should use your skills mapping matrix to identify the skills that
\nneed further development. You must include your Skills Matrix as an appendix.
\nWhen writing your Action Plan, you should use relevant literature to justify why these
\nskills\/attributes are important, why you want to develop the specific skills\/attributes you
\nhave chosen and how you plan to develop them over the coming years.
\nRemember this reflective assessment is still an academic piece of work and you must
\ndraw on your own background reading for the subject, relating your own experiences to
\nthe theoretical perspectives relevant to your experiences. However, as the work is more
\nabout your own experiences it is acceptable for this assessment to be written in the first
\nperson (\u2018I\u2019).<\/p>\n
