Regulators Development

• The RDNA self-assessment tool provides a robust process enabling regulators to identify and prioritise their development needs.
• The report created on completion of your self-assessment is intended to be used in discussion with your manager as part of your development review process. Following that discussion, the development needs you have agreed with your manager will guide the production of a personal development plan.

Using the tool

• To start using the tool, please register your email address and a password.
• You will then be directed to an assessment creation page where you should select the skills and knowledge sections that apply to your role (the core regulatory skills section is generic and applies to all regulators).
• Once you have worked through the assessment and all the modules have been submitted you will be prompted to name, save and/or download your assessment. The report should be shared with your manager.
• Full guidance on how to use the system and an overview of the approach can be found here.

What next?

• Once the RDNA report has been used as a basis for discussion with your manager, and your development needs have been agreed, the Guidance for Regulators Information Point (GRIP) can be used to identify how those development needs can be met in a cost-effective way. It mirrors the RDNA structure, providing links to 12 types of learning material. The means by which you intend to meet your development needs should then be agreed with your manager and will form the basis of your personal development plan for the year ahead.
