This week aims to develop my professional career. To be a ICT professional, I not only have develop my technique skill, but also I have to be work ethically and apply my knowledge in a professional way. To begin with, I decide to work in business intelligence field in my future. I collect all the skills and category it by utilizing the SFIA framework and by researching advertisements related to this field. I identified my current skills in these following fields: business analysis, data analysis, business modeling, database/repository design, and programming and software development. I considered myself in SIFA level 3 as the tutor indicated. This means I have to acquire more working experience and more knowledge to develop my skills. Even I have develop my technical skills, I must be aware of my generic skills, which is also considered as an important component in the work place. In terms of generic skills, I have to emphasize these by my current working experience. If a generic skill I claimed without working experience, it would be meaningless in my job application. Therefore, I will conclude that my career path is to develop all these technical skills that I matched in SFIA framework. In addition, I have to be aware that I have to develop my generic skills when I upgrade my technical skills.
