It gives YOU value!
As they say, knowledge is power. In professional terms, this can be true. The more you know about your role, the business you work for and the practises it does will make you more valuable as an employee and a team member.
Plan it out!
It’s always better to take a planned approach to continuous professional development. If you have a goal of what type of job you’d like to have in the next three to five years, have a look at how you can get there and the timeframe allowances for this. Make sure to factor in time for saving up for a course if decide you want to fund it yourself.
