Putting an Emphasis on Continuing Education

Adrianne Hungerford • August 18, 2021

What is Continuing Education, or “CE?” 

Continuing Education refers to any post-secondary learning or programs that one can pursue after formal education. This can vary from seminars, one-time classes, online courses, and entire degree programs. Guarantee Restoration Services offers many educational opportunities to grow within the company. Our executive team is always looking for ways to invest in our people of GRS.  


"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." 

- Nelson Mandela


Why is CE Important?

  • Increases your chances of being promoted! You are an investment and chances are, you will be recognized for the time you took to improve yourself. Oftentimes, after taking a course, you can possibly handle more tasks and responsibilities of your job.


  • Could increase your salary. 


  • Increase your ability to make a career transition within the company and creates a new path. Specific training can be crucial to your success and growth.


  • Improve your image and marketability. CE is valuable on your resume, helps you stand out, and shows your determination to take on a challenge and succeed. You may learn insights on the most current trends and skills in your industry, as well as having additional technology experience because of the time you spent learning something new.  


  • Improves your lifestyle. More money = Satisfaction with your work.


  • Increase personal development. CE can be a journey of personal development, not only professionally, but personal growth, helping you become a better person.


"Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think." 

- Albert Einstein


How to Get Involved in CE

I think we can all agree that CE can be a great path for everyone. Reach out to your supervisor and inquire about any courses or seminars specific to your company that you can take or are recommended. Find the courses that are the right fit for you. Now is the time to get started on a new journey that may end up changing your life!


"Some people dream of success, while other people get up every morning and make it happen."

- Wayne Huizenga
