Investing In Cutting Edge Skills To Be Professionally Competitive.

Today’s job market is changing at an incredibly fast pace. To stay competitive, to safeguard your career, and to ensure you can always find new work in the future, you need to be continually updating your knowledge and skills.

Returning back to school to further your education may not be an option for you at this time of course, because of all the excess “baggage” that comes along with upgrading your capabilities.

However, investing in your skills doesn’t necessarily require that you return back to a University classroom. From instructor-led professional training, online courses and seminars to self-studies and on-the-job projects that add to your current experiences, you have many options for getting out of your comfort zone and updating your skills.

Use these steps to begin your re-training and re-educating process when you’re ready to keep yourself always employable and in-demand.

  1. Evaluate your strengths to find your unique selling advantages.
  2. Leverage your strengths to address your weaknesses.
  3. Write an annual action plan to invest in cutting edge skills.
  4. Commit to Lifelong Learning

While learning something new may seem like a daunting task, remember that you have been learning ever since you were born. When you embrace the fact that learning is something you do continually, either formally or informally, you’ll always have the skills you need succeed in the future and learning won’t feel like a monumental task.

So, commit at least three hours weekly to updating your skills and refining your knowledge. That’s the best way to remain competitive in the job market and to ensure you thrive in your career.
