For this journal response, I would like to see you do three things: Identify and share links or documents associated with three instructional-design related job ads that associate with your career goals. These should be jobs that you are interested in for the future. Provide a summary of the competencies that appear most often within those job ads and reflect on your level of knowledge and experience within those competencies. Identify areas of growth for you moving forward. Create a draft action plan for building your expertise within those competencies identified. Your action plan should include two to three competencies that need to be addressed in the near future to help you meet your goals and increase your qualifications for potential job searches. For each competency: Identify the competency, define the competency, identify your current skill level, identify areas for growth within the competency, identify a timeline for gaining that knowledge/experience, and describe 2-3 resources (webinars, articles, professional development) that you could use to increase your knowledge/experience in that area. This action plan can take any form you want - some folks use tables, some merely type it all out, etc. Its up to you
