8. CRAFTING YOUR CAREER PATH
How does it differ between the digital learning
and workplace context?
When you transfer from the digital learning to workplace application
there are 3 key differences you should be aware of:
Digital learning provides you with modules and examples to
build your career, but workplace applications is the essential
stage of taking knowledge and skills directly into the work
environment. Try to use these practical experiences, practical
tasks, and real challenges that your daily work gives you to
develop your career and decide your next professional steps.
Digital learning often involves independent work, but the
workplace is typically characterized by collaboration. In this
dynamic environment, you'll engage with colleagues on
projects, collaboratively solve problems, and address conflicts.
These interactions provide valuable hands-on experience,
enhancing your comprehension of your chosen career path.
In digital learning, you may receive feedback from your
instructor or peers. However, the workplace provides a more
diverse set of perspectives and feedback opportunities.
Feedback from your manager and colleagues can help you
identify your areas of strength and weakness, which can be
valuable information for developing your career plan.
