Colan sent me this article this morning that was pretty awesome. My favorite line that sums it all up:
"The only way for organizations to ensure their workforces are fully productive and able to achieve business goals is to make sure employees are continuously learning, so that they are driving the business forward."

I have found that continuing education/learning is the only way to stay ahead in this industry. Personally, I learn something new every day (minus some weekends). I read new items and make it a habit to absorb something new that could better some process that I use.
As part of my role here, I take all the knowledge I absorb and pick out the prioirty items that REALLY matter and then do a training session with our staff once a month for several hours. I also have weekly meetings with my manager to relay information and our SEO team has weekly meetings as well.
What is your process for ongoing training? How much time do you dedicate to it?
