During the session, the speaker emphasized that in the context of constantly changing technology and labor markets, each individual needs to proactively learn, renew themselves, and adapt to new job requirements. Lifelong learning is not only about attending training courses or updating professional knowledge, but also an attitude of readiness to embrace new things, learn from practical experiences, from colleagues, and from the challenges encountered during work.
