At ICON plc, the work is continually changing and this is due to the fact that the company is working in consulting and the outsourcing of developments. ICON plc needs staff to be flexible and at the top of their field, so your interviewer needs to be assured that you take your own personal education in your work very seriously and they ask this question to gauge that.

Assure the interviewer that you are engaged when it comes to staying on top of new trends, information, and changes in your line of work. Some things to consider discussing are your networking ability with other in your field, any societies or groups that you belong to, and any continuing education that you actively participate in on a regular basis.
