As a training and development specialist your career opportunities are vast. If you have a deep skill in a specific industry (i.e. technology, healthcare, etc.) you can augment you marketability by pursuing a training position. Alternatively, you can also develop skills in the training arena then offer those skills to subject matter experts to assist them in putting together education programs and training curricula. Job duties include teaching training courses, welcoming employees at new employee orientation, writing lesson plans, marketing training courses, tracking attendees, and acting as a reference point for all sorts of questions. If you ever thought of becoming a teacher, but didn’t like the idea of working in a school or working with children, this is an ideal career. I would recommend this career to someone who isn’t bothered by public speaking, however, as a training and development specialist, people will look to you to be able to get up in front of a group and speak.
