It always bugs me to hear coworkers complain that employers don't pay for training. We work in an industry that makes it almost hilariously easy to self-study, and most of the things I'd really like to have paid training for are either too new or too esoteric for that training to exist.
- ghurlman 15y agoI think the complaints are valid - after all those employers are reaping the benefits of all that learning. That said - lack of paid-for training is never an excuse to stop learning.
- bartonfink 15y agoTrue, to the extent that those employees share their outside experiences with their work. I prefer to look at off-the-job training as an investment in myself. It may not make my current job pay more, but it will make it easier for me to get a more appealing job next time I'm on the market.
