Time for A New Beginning
Through the time I've been documenting my tech journey, I've learned this golden rule: speak your goals, make them a reality. So, here's my 2024 game plan!
Professional Goals:
- Goal: To gain a fully remote full time or part-time IT HelpDesk role
- Action Steps:
- Take an course or training program on IT Support: As someone who is still fairly new to tech, taking a course on this subject would help me gain the knowledge needed to succeed in this role.
- Hands-on Implementation: I'm a firm believer in that you gain experience through action, so I plan on finding open source projects or remote apprenticeship programs where I can put these skills into practice. Any suggestions?
- Timeline: Complete the course mid-2023 and pass the Comptia+ exam soon after.
Goal for DEV Community:
- Contribution Goal: To foster more knowledge to the Dev.to community
- Collaboration Plans:
- Do more documentation-related and code contributions to Forem's repository
- Publish more articles on Dev.to and Hashnode.
- Offer more comprehensive feedback to people's articles as a Dev.to moderator.
- Measuring Impact:
- Keeping an eye on responses to my posts and feedback.
- Chatting with moderators about the value of my open-source contributions.
Until Next Time!
And that folks are my 2024 resolutions! Stay tuned for the journey ahead! 🚀✨

Best of luck with your goals of learning more about tech and evolving your skills! You got this! 💪
Is there anything you want to tackle learning first? What area(s) of tech are you interested in? Maybe I can help with some ideas or sources to learn from 😀
Thanks @khloeabrown! :) I just learned about Catalye’s apprenticeship program and Apprenti’s apprenticeship program. Maybe you can connect me with people who have taken these programs?
LG @cbid2!

Rooting for you Christine 🤞
