Distance learning can help you increase your value as an employee, and thus help you earn a significant salary increase. This can be done through adding new skills and qualifications to your CV, or by obtaining training that will make you eligible for a promotion. The purpose of distance learning is, after all, to allow you to get vocational and career-orientated training from home in your spare time.
Studying while working also increases your chances of getting a raise by proving to your employer that you are:
- Motivated
- Interested in self-improvement
- Hard working
- Committed towards furthering your professional career
To increase your worth as an employee, you can choose to take a course that will expand your current skill set. You might want to work towards a Diploma in Labour Relations if you work in Human Resources, for example. Another option is to study something that can prepare you for a promotion. A Business Management course might make you eligible for that managerial post that just opened up in your company.
