Life begins at 50!
Are you planning your retirement or semi-retirement?
If you are 50 or over, you have probably toiled for the better part of your life so now, perhaps it is time for a change and a second life that is more in tune with your true passions and interests.
The Continuing Education Fund (CEF) was enhanced earlier this year, with a higher subsidy ceiling up to $20,000, and a new upper age limit to 70. So why not take advantage of these changes and start cultivating your interests or developing new ones?
HKU SPACE
has over 1,400
CEF courses
so you are sure to find one that is right up your street. For example, you could enrol in a
life coaching
course and help young people to find their lifetime goals. Or you could study
Chinese medicine and
Tui-Na, and use your new found wisdom to stay fit and healthy. You could learn to fly a light aircraft, or find out more about information technology, photography, psychology, or even pick up a new language. This way, you could not only use what you have learnt in real life settings, but also keep up with the times and reach a new potential.
In the first half of your life, perhaps you have lived a life for others of another. Now you can live a little for yourself. It is time to embrace your second life! |
