02 Review your development plan

[SallyMcGrath]

Coursework content

Using the Build Your Life plan and your first version of your Career Development plan, we want you to continuously think about the goals you want to achieve: short/medium/long-term. These should still be linked to the areas you want to develop.

Remember: 2-3 areas are enough to change in such a short time, so it's better to focus on a few, get them nailed, and then choose another area.

Ensure you are not only thinking of technical knowledge you want to acquire but especially skills and processes that will help you become a developer.

Examples of goals

• Short term: Practicing coding = Code 1 hour a day on weekdays
• Medium-term: Enhance my written English = Trying to correct by myself the errors that the automated grammar tool is showing in my text
• Long term: Get a job in tech = Send 1 tailored CV per day when I have graduated from Code Your Future

Estimated time in hours

0.5
