A Learning Profession
Several LISprofs presented at this workshop and discussed issues around professional development and networking. There were a number of key things that I learned from the presenters, including:
- Thank the people who help you out on your career path and projects you take on.
- Use social media to network with industry professionals and get involved in industry-related discussions.
- Support the industry and help yourself by getting involved in workshops.
- Keep your skill set current by attending professional development seminars, signing up to relevant mailing lists and reading widely.
I learned that these are all key components that are integral to being a valuable information professional.
