Professional Development on Fridays at YPBCo
Our office is closed on Fridays, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t working!
We are often asked why we are closed on Fridays – the answer is so that we can keep learning and stay up-to-date with trends on the web!
Why is Professional Development important to the YPBCo crew?
We believe that industry and career learning should never stop! Creatives should always strive to seek more knowledge, polish professional skills, and aim for excellence each day on the job. Professional development for teams should be just as important for employers as it is for their employees. Whether it’s onsite training from internal company leaders or bringing in external guests to offer new methodologies or skills, employers should have a professional development strategy in place.
