Can your PLN be used to help professional development post-course?
Yes, I think PLN can be used to help professional development post-course because one of the benefits of having a PLN is that it provides access to a diverse range of resources. The resources can help to keep up with the latest developments in a particular field or industry. They also give people a lot of opportunities to meet professionals in different fields or industries, who will give you a variety of advices, guidance on your work problems, or provide you an opportunity to learn from each other’s experience. Moreover, we can also use PLN to learn and to find out what advice is available to us or to listen to when we are in training, and we can use the resources of PLN to do our job more efficiently.
Can your PLN be relied on to open professional opportunities?
Yes, I think PLN can be replied on to open professional opportunities because there are many resources available on PLN then we can interact with professionals in different fields by participating in community. Furthermore, sharing your personal work and expertise on social platforms can increase your influence in a certain field, and it may give you an opportunity to attract the attention of potential employers and create some career opportunities for yourself.
