Personal development includes the processes of improving ourselves through activities such as enhancing our skills (improving our employability), increasing consciousness, and building or maintaining wealth.
The growing success of the self-help and personal development movement has improved the chances of today's businesses obtaining more qualified and motivated personnel for their companies. It has also encouraged more people to go into business for themselves.
OLT's Personal Development courses were primarily written by staff members to answer their own questions and are now available to the world through our site. The courses for improving employability are available under our professional development category.
