Career planning is part of what you do when you're thinking about a new career, or you'd like to progress in the career you are in.  You might be wanting to make a complete change, or just improve where you are at the moment.  Planning needs time as there are several things to consider.  When you are planning you need to think about:

• what you can do already
• what you'd like to do next
• what else you need to learn
