Key points:
* Professional development often occurs out of prior obligation.
* Professional development as presentation at conferences - a way to meet colleagues.
* Professional development as conference host - a way to exploit prior connections and make new ones.
* Professional development as scholarly publishing - more connections particularly with evaluators and especially in the literature review part, a way to learn about the efforts of others in the field.
* Professional development tied to work done down the road.
