In our rapidly evolving knowledge economy, many people try to stay up-to-date by continually learning new ways to work, communicate and collaborate. We stress the importance of learning to our employees and families, encouraging them to acquire and refine new skills. There are ample benefits to being a life-long learner, including enhanced self-confidence and achieving personal and professional goals.

Despite the inherent benefits of learning, it can be difficult to find the time and energy to achieve your learning goals — even on an annual basis. For traditional instructor-led learning, accommodating travel costs and scheduling commitments can be tough. But with self-paced learning, you can set our own schedule and take the time you need — learning where and when you want.

Self-paced learning

Before you start your self-paced learning journey, you should consider the following:

  • What do you want to learn this year?
  • Have you developed your learning plan?
  • Do you have the right resources and support to achieve your goals?
  • Does your plan include achieving a formal certification?
  • Does your plan fit into your work/life schedule?
