What is Professional Development?

• Professional development is the skills and knowledge an employee gains to optimize her personal development and job growth. It includes learning opportunities, such as college degrees and coursework, or attending conferences or training sessions.

• Personal development is a way for an individual to set goals and improve his life. It typically requires a person to evaluate his life at the present, which helps to determine where he wants to be in the future. Every personal development is different, depending on the person. It usually, however, involves some sort of plan to get the most out of life.
