## Overview

This one-minute video from the Mavericks of Business Central series discusses career paths and opportunities in Business Central. Speakers say Microsoft has talent programs for building knowledge and a career in Business Central, and that success depends on implementing best practices.

They stress that theoretical knowledge needs to be combined with practical experience, which beginners get by working with experienced people. Starting in Business Central lets you explore areas such as consultant, sales, finance, project manager or technical developer roles, and developers can work at code level.

## Key points

- Microsoft has talent programs for building knowledge and a career in Business Central.
- Implementing best practices is described as central to success, and the open question is how to learn what they are.
- Theoretical and practical knowledge are both needed.
- Beginning consultants and developers often lack practical knowledge.
- Working with experienced people is described as the perfect combination for gaining practical knowledge.
- A start in Business Central, for example as a consultant, opens several paths: sales, finance, project manager or a more technical developer job working in the code.
- You do not need to know now what you will be doing for the next 10 years.
