Take Control of Your Future: Career Development 101

Course Overview

Lewis Carroll wrote: “If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there.” The Alice in Wonderland author meant that without a goal and a plan, you’ll wander aimlessly to nowhere. 

This wisdom rings especially true when it comes to career advancement, where a wishy-washy idea won’t get you to your dreams. In this course, you’ll learn how to map your career development plan, track progress with your manager, and add value to your role. You’ll also discover how to assess your goals, improve your personal brand, and – when you’re ready – get the raise or job move you’ve been working toward.
