- The pace of change and volatility has increased. This requires professionals to retool periodically rather than lump all education into the start of their lives. New theories, case studies, and frameworks are needed for new problems.
- Competition for jobs and promotions has increased. A short break to retool can mean a chance to get ahead through better credentials.
From the candidates’ perspective, there are several advantages to following this approach:
- As stated, the break provides a retooling that can help career growth.
- The work experience itself acts as an impetus for deeper classroom learning as concepts can be related to real-life more easily.
- There are richer peer-to-peer learning opportunities as people from varied professional and undergraduate backgrounds learn and work together full time.
