During this pause in our careers, continuing education is most important.
But technical books and good training courses can be expensive or hard to
find. One good option that I found was renewing my membership in the ACM. As
part of the member benefits they offer free online access to 1,100 books and
3,200 courses covering both technical, personal improvement and other areas.
I have knocked off several O'Reilly books, competed a collection of course
for a BA certificate, and done research on other topics of interest. Just
getting three of the books I read would cost more then the membership.

For what you get, you can't beat the price. Check out the offer below to see
if it makes sense for you.

To: "Peter Lutz" <lutzpf@gmail.com>

Hello Peter Lutz -

Summer can be a good time to pick up a book to read. And you can help
yourself at the same time by choosing a good career oriented book that will
help you add to your skill set.

Maybe a book is too much right now - I know summer can be very busy. My
summer certainly has been! So finding time to read can be a challenge.

Well Laura Brandau Brandenburg has a solution. She has a book coming out
later this summer, The Promotable Business Analyst, giving lots of advice
for improving your career opportunities. As a preview she has provided a
free paper with some great ideas you can apply right now!

Laura says:

"As part of researching The Promotable Business Analyst and interviewing
dozens of business analysts about their career progressions, I identified 3
habits that seemed to permeate success. I've pulled these habits together in
a short primer, complete with quotes from a few of the business analysts I
interviewed as well as a worksheet to help you apply these principles to
your own career development."

I looked over her primer and find it very useful, so I wanted to share with
you how you can get a copy for yourself.

You can get it here, just by supplying your name and email address:

BA Success Primer<http://clicks.profollow.com/y/ct/?l=Kimbl&m=1gH_UtwSgqdQIj&b=DP03YL.f_orbgtFdxh3fiw>

You'll get a copy of the paper and Laura will let you know when her book is
available.

Best regards -
