Management Tips For Continuing Education Students

By Leticia Jensen


Finishing a baccalaureate degree is not an assurance that you will be getting a job related to it. Sometimes we fall into a different path and we realize that we really are good at it. This is why others are taking continuing education for substance abuse counselors because they think that they really are destine to guide these poor souls.

Further education is something that can be taken formally and informally. It is something that someone takes after she graduated a baccalaureate degree. This can be somehow important depending on what you are really into. For example if you are working as photographer, the you need to study for photography.

But getting into such activity is a bit crucial because you are both studying and working so without proper organization such as time management. You will be creating a mess that can no longer be fixed. So in this case, you should know some ways on how to keep yourself organized even if you are very busy and do not have leisure moment.

A fixed time can be ideal to have a routine work and study habits. If you are working as an employee surely you have fixed schedules unless you have some changes of shifts. But as a freelance, you need to set a momentwhen to work and study to create your body clock. Once your body clock is made then everything will just follow as if the day cannot be completed without it.

If you have a tablet, then it is ideal to download all your studying materials or ask for a copy of the powerpoint presentation from your teacher if they will allow. If you do not have a tab then print them out for portability. A time that you will be waiting for your turn in a cashier can be useful to finish at least one to two pages of a print out.

Have an official working space in your room. There you will be placing everything that is related to your work and separate it to the place of your study where you put all your school stuff. This is one of the common problems faced by continuing students. They tend to mix their work and school stuff. Having separate places is ideal.

You need to buy yourself a planner if you still do not believe that they are effective. If you think they are not effective at least buy something where you can take down notes all your present and upcoming activities for you to keep yourself guided and for you to have control of your time and pleasure. Both factors go together sometimes and the result is always waste.

You need to stay focused. If it is the time for your school, never lend your senses to you work. If you are in your work do not attempt to open your notes. Do everything one at a time because focus is the most important thing when you are committed.

Undergoing further education for substance abuse counselors can be very tiring. But if you really think that you are destined in this work, then you have to be determined enough to face all of those difficulties.
