"Skills give agency to people to shape their lives, to create new skills and to flourish."
- Kautz et al. (2014)
Today's employers are looking for individuals who have the flexibility, motivation, and resourcefulness needed to learn on the job and adapt to an everchanging workplace. Identifying who you are as a learner is the first step in discovering how you can maximize your potential and develop these skills. Many of these skills, such as time management, information processing, and concentration, and others that are learned in the PSL course can be used and adapted when learning new technologies in the workplace.
