Career Pathways
These pathways show the scope and stages of role development for nurses, from pre-registration through to Nurse Practitioner or advanced enrolled nursing practices:
Professional development career planning
The Ministry of Health and CCDHB require all health professionals and staff to have a career plan in place. A career plan reflects your values, choices, goals, actions and its part of your professional development.
The Career Planning Guide will take you through the career planning process and how to develop a career plan.
Use the Professional Development and Career Plan (PDCP) to record your goals and action plan. The Professional Development and Career Plan replaces the former Professional Development Plan and is used across the central region by nursing professionals.
The Midwifery Performance Appraisal and Development form is used for midwives to record their goals and action plan. This document is used across the central region.
