Recent studies

A couple of recent studies have come out with interesting results relating to women. One in Canada indicates that women tend to get less on the job training but when offered it, are more likely to take it then men. Another in New Mexico, indicates that women may rank themselves higher than they believe their boss, peers and colleagues would.

My advice: Ask for training and don't assume others don't share your opinion of how hard and well you work. In both cases, your boss or company may not say it but training is available and your work is valued. Don't forget to ask and promote yourself.
