Would you agree if it would be said that everyone is in need to continue upgrading and updating one’s knowledge in this ever-growing and expanding world. It is the emergent need to survive in the cut-throat competitive world. I guess most of the answers will be in the affirmative. How would it be if you get ample of time for self growth and development? Enhancing your knowledge along with your work will be proved to be icing on the cake. Isn’t it? Utilising this lockdown in the same can be proven as a productive usage of the tenure. There are so many platforms on which a broad range of training is available which can be useful to develop one's soft and hard skills.

Though, these trainings are available always but some of the institutes have come across with a huge discount and comparatively at low prices in this lockdown period. Some of these online learning platforms are also providing free courses with certificates. Certifications are always being proven as a plus in someone’s portfolio. A little extra will always put someone a step ahead from the crowd. There are a number of courses provided by a couple of platforms like Google, Udemy, Coursera, Harvard, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, EdX, Future Learn etc, which have open many of their courses for free which are usually very costly. It's time to reap this golden opportunity and take the benefit thereby. One should not be relinquished with anything that is developing either one’s soft skill or hard skill.

One can opt for the courses that would help him out to grow his/her skill set. There is a long list of the courses being provided by these online learning platforms on Digital Marketing, Information Technology, Management, Finance and Economics, Personality Development, Content Writing and Marketing etc. Sarah Caldwell has aptly quoted that “Learn everything you can, anytime you can, from anyone you can, there will always come a time when you will be grateful you did.” Desire is the only factor one needs to learn anything. There are so many means to continue learning. Learner’s determination and grit is of great consequence as far as the efficiency of the complete learning process is concerned. Learning is a dual-direction process where there is a need of an instructor and a learner. To support this statement, give a read to a maxim given by Bernard Bull “In order to create an engaging learning experience, the role of instructor is optional, but the role of learner is essential.” The crux of the entire study is that there are a lot of opportunities for the aspirants who yearn to leap forward to upgrade one’s knowledge to kick their career several notches higher.
