Course Overview
Hi everyone, my name is Jason Alba. Welcome to my course, Building and Managing Your Career Plan. I started my technical career programing an intranet while still in college, and later went on to become an IT Manager, and then General Manager of a software firm. I am passionate about professional development, and have over two dozen professional development courses on Pluralsight. In this course I talk about steps you can take to have the career you want. Specifically we talk about creating a career plan and vision, and then working the plan. We'll talk about how to go from where you are now, to the job you've always wanted. We'll also talk about the role of happiness and satisfaction in your career, and how to handle the times when you don't feel happy or satisfied. The end result to these tactics is that you will feel more in control of the future of your career, you'll have a plan you can start working on right now, and you'll know how to work towards a more fulfilling job and career. By the end of this course, you should feel like you have a better grasp on your career management, and know how to move forward to have the career you deserve. After watching this course, continue your learning by diving into other professional development courses like How to Get Your Next Promotion, Career Management 2. 0, and Leadership: Getting Started. I hope you'll join me on this journey of improving your career with the Building and Managing Your Career Plan course at Pluralsight.
