Global Career Development Training for Women

Smiling confident businesswomanWomen in IT positions often find themselves isolated and unable to access the information they need to further their career development. To address this issue womenintechnology.co.uk and Krissy Jackson, The IT Girls Career Coach have partnered to provide further training opportunities via webinar for women all around the Globe.


“This is a natural partnership. Both organizations are committed to assisting women in technology to build successful and satisfying careers”. “Partnering with the IT Girls Coach and adding webinars to career training course options is helping to dramatically extend the reach of womenintechnology.co.uk,” said Sarah Lilley the Events & Training Co-ordinator. “This month’s featured webinar already has 280 registrants from four continents.”

For those unfamiliar with this technology, a webinar (short for web-based seminar) is a presentation or workshop that is transmitted over the web. The benefit of webinars over telephone conferences is that as well as hearing the discussion, participants can see visual aids and presentations and download handouts. A key feature of a webinar is that it is interactive, so people can give, receive and discuss information.

No Bonus but Lots of Separation Pays

Recession

Christmas time is finally here and most employees are perhaps enjoying their meals and exchanging gifts, two familiar scenes when Yuletide season sinks in. But part of reality is the fact that practically a million workers (and counting) from the globe have lost their jobs, many of whom got their last paycheck in perhaps large sums. With that in mind, should you spend it all?

There are some who have saved as much as they can. Spending on a budget and making sure that they don’t go on empty. Some are planning their 2009 plan of action, much of which is to land a new job by reading the papers or visiting some job sites that provide various posts on job openings.

The people who got bonuses are quite lean this year and this can be typified by the sales of most retailers, a lot of whom admitted dwindled a lot. So while we don’t want to ruin Christmas, keep that thought that a week from now, 2009 is here. Draw out your career plans. The Year of the Ox does not seem bright thus far.
