Education on the Move
Are you looking for a way to keep your
skills current even when away from home? If so, there are lots of great
resources online that can help you achieve your goals, keep those skills
fresh, and even earn continuing education credit -- all for FREE.
As some of you may know, there are countless ways to learn. The two most
popular methods are in-person classes and online classes. If you are on
the move constantly, either getting stationed different places,
deployed, or in a field that requires lots of travel, online is the way
to go.
If technology is your interest, you will not find a better resource than
GCF Learn Free. GCF offers
self-paced online tutorials on Microsoft Office applications, job
skills, and even new media like Facebook. They also offer online classes
that you can take to earn CEU's. Again, everything on this site is free!
Another great resource is
Custom Guide,
an online directory that has countless handouts and "cheat sheets" to
make anyone a pro in Excel or Word.
Last but not least, the
Kuder
Quick Reference Guide is out there for all the people who haven't
picked a career path yet. There are multiple assessments that will help
you discover what you might excel at or be most successful in. This
process can take up to an hour but is a valuable tool to find your next
career.
