1. Challenge: Future
CAREER TIP

2. My career tip for GROW(R)ing in 2015
Invest on lifelong learning! One of the essential preconditions for personal development is
education. The world is moving on, hence, we must adjust to all the changes and conform to the
emerging trends of nowadays and of tomorrow. It’s extremely important and a huge plus for a
business person to be a lifelong learner so as to convince both his colleagues and his employer
that he is passionate with his job and he is restless. Also, that he does not consider himself perfect
simply because there’s always room for improvement and innovation. Therefore, we should all
engage in the ongoing process of enriching our knowledge on our occupational fields through
unconventional and sustainable practices. In this way we ensure the improvement of our
competences and manage to be successful workers who can adjust to different (future) working
environments. Lifelong learning can only bring substantial rewards in your professional life.

3. Gabriela Gabriel
My name is Gabriela Gabriel and I am 22. I have recently graduated
from the University of Cyprus with a bachelor degree on English
Language and Literature. I am currently working as a teacher in the
private sector however my ambition is to become a professor of
linguistics or a neurolinguist. I decided to join the C:F community so
as to broaden my professional networks and be an active contributor
on C:F’s effort on healthy competition in the fields of education and
employment. Moreover, through C:F I have direct access to any
trends and current issues related not only to education but to every
(professional) field and I can keep myself up to date and follow
others’ educators ideas and suggestions while providing my personal
experiences and beliefs too.
