Transform your job into a successful and satisfying career. Networking is critical for finding jobs, while continuous learning is critical for advancement. What should you do after you have a job, and what are the best ways to advance in your career? Many of the skills required for finding that first job need to be maintained and upgraded for career success. In addition, continuing to learn new skills and information will be indispensable throughout your professional life.

Within 10 years you’ll be expected to do things that are not being taught today, and we’ll discuss the best ways to learn new skills and areas of specialization. Lessons from cognitive and educational psychology on how to optimize learning provide a methodology, while the thousands of free online courses and resources provide content.

Join us and learn how to make effective connections via teachers, colleagues, friends, and family. Learn what to do, and what not to do.

All participants will receive (electronically) a 65-page paper prepared by the presenter that includes links to over 70 articles, 30 courses, 16 recruiting firms, and multiple books and organizations (“Developing a Successful Career: How to find a Job, Continue to Learn, and Advance in your Career”).

A government-issued photo ID is required for entrance to the building.

This seminar is sponsored by GBCACM and BostonCHI.
