Approaches the self-manage learning:
Seminars and Conferences: Seminars and conferences are the best way of self-managed
learning, because people took part in the seminars and conferences to share ideas and
experiences that will help them to improve the development of personal skills and
personality, sharing their personal ideas coming out of new things. It also helps to improve
their self-confidence.

The learning under common sense, primarily for school we mean learning. But in fact, all
throughout his life learn where to consciously and unconsciously where. New knowledge,
skills, behaviours we acquire, thus our personality is constantly change.
The knowledge is the skills, abilities, attitudes the set with which the individual has. The
acquisition of knowledge is between formal, informal and non-formal settings throughout our
lives.
The formal learning is narrower sense, the school system- Primary, secondary and
vocational schools and colleges, university - teaching involves. In a broader sense, all
operations in the institutional framework of training falls into this category. The students
performed a certificate, they receive a diploma as proof of their qualifications.
Informal learning: knowledge brings almost unnoticed - lifestyle, everyday activity, in
our work - we get. Informal learning is often unnoticed, it takes place spontaneously during

on the internet, the parents observed on using cooking or crafting techniques, etc.

competencies.

The lifelong learning philosophy of the society and the individual responsibility of both

While some things within the organization, such as problem solving, this type of knowledge
an individual can learn to self-managed learning, transferable skills that can be learned and
the employees in the workplace. Most organizations today prefer to move towards flexibility
that employees like to assign different tasks without personal commitments. This selfmanaged learning specific may be talented to learn and build skills and aptitudes, as follows:
Teamwork skills
When one visits the self-managed learning seminars and group discussions, it will help the

individual to the repair teamwork. This not only helps people, it helps the organization to be
successful.
Presentation Skills
Does the self-managed learning, visit the seminars and group discussions with others that
will enhance personal communication and good interpersonal trust, and as a result the
students learn how to make and present lectures that have the chance to express their
knowledge and speak in front of others, and which is an advantage for an organization.

Communication Skills
Self-managed learning helps in communication and writing skills, which is very useful for
the individual and the objectives of the organization. It also helps to work independently and
as a result of their own and come up with a new concept and will share it with others, to learn
new things that do not know it all. It will be a good working environment which is beneficial
for organizational development.

Every successful organization always depends on continuously watching the progress and
development of new skills and talents, and knowledge of the essence of a person and
organization. Typically, a personal professional development plan and an action plan in
which every individual is responsible to achieve their goals and achieve your goals you need
to set it up. In terms of organization, the organization must do to achieve their aspirations and
skills.
Development plan activities:

Internet: The Internet offers many opportunities for self-improvement and professional
development. For example: Manufacturers and service providers' websites through view into

the new technology processes.

Learning through research: Research is sometimes defined as the creation of new knowledge.
External training events; these are not necessarily qualifications, these courses.
Motivational courses that can be used for personal development.

themselves.

The conference various organizations and bodies larger-scale gatherings. The same range of
participants displayed interest in order to expand their professional skills and subjects,
exchange experiences (meetings, discussion sessions).
Interview: Talk of the colleagues who had been ranked higher job interview a lot of
advantages. So find out what expectations must be met in the future.
Social networks: Increases in this type of social network like Facebook.
Such a group offers the opportunity to join the like, which are related to our work.
News groups: Similar to social networking sites. Newsgroups allows you to do business,
professional, and technical users to interact with each other and share each other in their
ideas were.
Mentoring:Work refers to a person who is a consultant is available, such as trade issues with

a colleague. The mentor will accompany the staff in their professional development, and
shows an example of him.

to move into a different role. It helps to know another post.Then back to the original plan can

Based on the instructions of the PDP (Personal Development Plan) used by the users in terms
of specific areas of improvement to help individuals, according to development needs.
The relationship between focused the PDP
In order to better the performance of the existing job should be focused, concentrate on the
specific purpose of personal development plan. The development process can take the next
step in his career. This approach encourages individuals to consider the demands of their
personal and professional effectiveness and the related development.
I consider it extremely important that individual employees take the opportunity when you
feel satisfied with the planning of development projects in with things.
Execution and Support
To implement these plans for personal and professional development content faces two major
N
issues in the implementation and support. First, the plan, which is considered to apply to
every individual needs a lot of efforts in communication and training support to achieve your
goals. The second major challenge is self-managed learning, at some point, and most
employees need help in thinking, in their judgments of progress. In both cases, you need a
significant amount of support. In general, the implementation of support, assistance will have
to keep interest in maintaining and promoting the design of the development.

Gibbs reflective cycle encourages the need to consider what has happened, what's going on
and how to change and improve the results.
My objective: A personal development plan to reflect the logic of experience, ideas,
knowledge and ideas. This helps you to make thoughts on how to do in the near future.It is
very important to give time to personal and professional development. Appreciate the work
and progress towards the ambitions, aspirations and goals. Whilst it reflects the personal
development plan a few things on their minds: What work has been done? What training has
been completed? When? What did we achieve? And do we need any training further?

The aim is to reach after no stopping it. Be borne in mind what has been achieved, update, repurpose and is trying to access it again. A personal development plan should be examined,
terms of existing things, change the target and re-achieve, repeat the process.
The new ideas will expand their thinking and knowledge.

What is a problem? A problem is a situation that presents difficulty or perplexity. Problems
come in many shapes and sizes. For example, it can be:
Something does not work as it should, and does not know how or why.
Something is needed but not available, and some will instead be to find
Problem is, every day events of life, and in order to cause less stress and frustration, we must
learn how to deal with them in a rational and logical manner.

Identify the issues: Be clear about what the problem is

Understand everyone's interests: This is a critical step.
The best solution is one that satisfies everyone.
List the possible solutions: Its time to collect some ideas. It may hide a lot of space
for creativity.
Evaluate the options. What are the plus and minus?
Select an option or options: What is the best solution for the balance?
Is there a way to "package" a number of options with a satisfactory solution?
The best solution for evaluating, selecting. Maybe offer more choices
Document the agreement: Write down the details, it is easier to think through and

Communication; is the exchange of information between the transmitter and the receiver.
The mutual communication is a dynamic process,
We communicate every moment of life, that is, information about the other party about
ourselves or our environment. The communication can be one-way, when the student has no
way of immediate feedback, your opinion does not say. In the case of two-way
communication is possible in the immediate feedback, such as conversation, discussion,
talking on the phone.
L

Components of Communication: The communication process consists of four main
components. Those components include the encoding, transmission medium, decoding and
feedback. Transmitter and receiver part.
For communication with the following main elements are required:
Figure 2
Sender: he who send the message, Receiver: he who receives the message

Medium: contact established between the transmitter and the receiver
Message: information provided to receivers by the transmitter

Feedback or return: verbal or non-verbal response from the receiver to the transmitter
O

Everyone uses two basic channels in communication, verbal one, that is, the language, the
other is non-verbal, adjacent channel words. The researchers concluded that the non-verbal
channel much larger role in the process of communication, such as language signals, i.e.
speech. We could say that the more important for us "how to say" like "what they say."

individuals
- Group communication, e.g. family, work and other communities

- Mass media, e.g. TV, radio
The intention of communicating

According to the signal system used
- Verbal communication: using natural human language sign system, signs and symbols,
words and meaning, types of words, gender, culture, context

Effective time management is critical to every business. Everyone can improve time schedule
and development of these skills can be of great benefit.
