INTERVIEW: Value of Reading Professional Books, Journals

January 26, 2018 by Jim Peacock Leave a Comment

Value of Reading Professional Books, Journals

Career practitioners, like many people, are so busy. It is so important for ourselves and our profession that we continue to learn and find ways to do our own professional development (PD). *This is a follow up to a blog on the same topic. Lack of time. Lack of money. Two big reasons why people don’t do PD. Watch this interview with Aimee Parker and Lynn Carroll talk with me about finding that time to read on a regular basis and give some tips on how to find the time to do this.
