- Read ... given how few people actualyy do read, even the act of reading will put you ahead of the curve!.
- Get a Mentor ... find someone (or some people) who would be willing to spend a little time helping you to grow professionally.
- Set aside time for further education ... one course a year, a semester etc. Do something you can stick to.
- Keep all of the training materials from any course you take. Re-visit them six months later and you will very likely learn something new, that was lost on you the first time around.
- Borrow training materials from co-workers.
- Find blogs related to your field and follow them ... set aside time each week to do this.
- Get involved in your industry association.
- Get involved in charity work ... you can learn a lot from the other volunteers.
- Get your company to support your training plans.
- Create an action plan based on the above ... do what works for YOU!
