Self-confidence is an important aspect of one's ability to move forward in work or study. Many persons completing the print- and online-versions of the SKP comment that the exercise of reflecting and recording one's skills and knowledge increased their sense of self-esteem. It also allows an opportunity to collectively and critically reflect on the actual meaning of one's experiences and the relationship these experiences have to the notion of knowledge and skill.We hope that by using the SKP to record their past learnings adult learners will be encouraged to continue and that educational and economic institutions will come on board to recognize the initiative and creativity that is revealed in the SKP document.
