Thank you for watching! What was your takeaway from this video? Will you consider one of these certificates? Let me know in the comments below.
Great content! Yes, I am taking CPD courses to build capacity for entrepreneurship after my PhD, and also in case opportunities come up that require them. I have taken a course on project management, social media/digital marketing, content creation and digital metrics and analysis. This is not only useful for entrepreneurship, but I have also seen job specifications for academic/research jobs requiring these skills, for research dissemination in non-academic avenues. As long as we are working, our skillsets need updating. Trends change and we are well placed to manage our own learning to maximise them. Even in retirement, there are skills for life, so, learning never ends.
A doctorate degree is not that much of a trump card if we don’t keep up-skilling. In which, case a candidate with a lesser qualification but demonstrating ongoing learning may appeal more to an employer or hirer than a PhD who demonstrates that they know it all and can’t be bothered to learn more. Let’s remember that a doctorate evidences expertise in a small niche. There’s still a wider world to keep abreast with.
Thank you so much for watching and for commenting. "Let’s remember that a doctorate evidences expertise in a small niche. There’s still a wider world to keep abreast with." 100 times yes!

Amazing
Thanks for watching.
Ma'am your space in the back is so warm but empty. Put some beautiful green plants back there! I have had several people check my resume and each has said something different. I am sick of it.
Thanks for watching. Ah, it can be frustrating having people look at your resume and get different responses. Wishing you the best as you look for your next career.
