1. An agile approach: mainly relying on the social media, especially on Youtube to learn topics ans concepts in an agile mode, e.g. with the agile literature review approach;
2. A globalized approach: Learn information and knowledge in a globalized way; do not confine to learning in local educational/ professional institutions and local newspapers. Again, the social media on the Internet is one of the main channels to learn globally; Related to this, learning outlook should be cosmopolitan.
3. Adopt an appropriate mind-set of learning, as supplemented with a suitable life-style. In this regard, I recommend the pursuit of the scholar-practitioner development path;
4. Adopt a multi-disciplinary and, better still, a trans-disciplinary mode of intellectual learning, such as the multi-perspective, systems-based research mode;
5. Obtain some kind of tutorial and mentoring support, if necessary.
6. Continuous professional development should be self-driven, life-based, critical and reflective, and agile.
Lastly, compatible with my recommendations above, do not rely "too much" on continuous professional development programmes that are "expensive", "inefficient", "rigid", "big-bang-style", "intensively accelerated" and "external pressure-driven".
