Staff Reflection and Professional Growth Plans

Empower every member of staff to take ownership of their professional growth. iAbacus provides a simple, structured tool for meaningful reflection, appraisal, and evidencing impact over time, making professional development a consistent, supportive, and developmental dialogue for everyone.

Own your professional growth

Staff can use a personal abacus to reflect on their practice against professional standards or personal goals. The process encourages them to self-assess honestly, gather evidence of their impact, and create targeted, manageable action plans for their own development.

Streamline appraisal and performance management

iAbacus makes formal reviews more focused and evidence-based. Staff come to appraisal meetings feeling prepared and in control of their development journey, with clear evidence readily organised, leading to more meaningful, forward-looking professional conversations.

Evidence your impact over time

The platform creates a living record of professional growth. By adding new beads as they develop new skills or complete CPD, staff can visually track their progress. This provides a powerful, evidence-backed story of their journey and impact, perfect for career development.

Benefits for key roles

iAbacus supports both the individual's growth and the leaders guiding them.
