Taking control of your career: professional development beyond PCIfA

How do we take ownership of our career development? Early in your career, your employer might guide you through training and learning opportunities. As you take on more responsibilities or start to specialise, finding the right training can feel inaccessible or unaffordable.

This workshop will help you navigate these issues, allowing you to determine whether a training opportunity is filling a skill shortage within your organisation or actively progressing your career. 

This workshop asks:

• How can I use CPD to further develop the career I want?
• What can we do to be proactive and take control of our learning to ensure that our CPD choices are effective and efficient uses of our time and resources?
• What can we say to employers and training providers to advocate for a wider and more in-depth range of CPD opportunities that will benefit not only individuals but could help to fill skills gaps across the sector?

This workshop is for archaeologists moving towards mid-career who would like to maximise their next career stage and line managers who would like to support their staff with their career development goals.
