Academic Development

Academic development is a personal growth process in which you gradually discover what you want to be good at and what you are good at in the academic world. During your studies, you discover which courses interest you the most, what your studies can offer you, and what you want to do after you finish. You could work as a researcher, a lawyer, a doctor, an urban and rural planner, or a policymaker. Which skills, work experience, or network are required? Examine the possibilities for your development within, outside of, and after your studies.

Here is where skill development comes into play. In this post, I talk more about skill development, why it's important for goal achievement, and how to get started. The process of (1) identifying your skill gaps and (2) developing and honing these skills is known as skill development. It is significant because your abilities determine your ability to carry out your plans successfully.
