In thinking about training of postdocs with less resources, I am interested in hearing what are the most value parts of the postdoc experience, what works well, etc as seen from the perspective of those who have continued in research. Viewed as an apprenticeship what types of teaching helped you most and over the longer term.
@ To my mind, one should not sit free and wait for the best opportunity in research. Rather one should start with what so ever available but related to the research already done. This continuity will help in updating the research activity and the person will learn more and more. This experience will also helpful to get the better opportunity in research in future.
No doubt the teaching of research related topics are useful and looks easy to taught but learning and teaching of other related topics or courses will elevate the scientific potential of the person.

Documentation of development work has been a key to success. What did Shakesperare? What did Miguel de Cervantes? What did Edmund Phelps, the Nobel Price Winner? They all documented the existing knowledge..
I am an engineering doctor. As more than 90% of German engineering doctors, I worked for industry after completing my doctorate. I did that for six years, before I became a professor. These six years of experience were the best preparation for teaching, I could imagine, since I had to explain my ideas to customers, and since I had to find out in practice what was relevant and what was not relevant.
