I have not seen anything representing this, so I have some house rules that I have used which seem to be useful and may find their way into the setting I'm writing.
Prior to entering a career, there are some skills available to characters. However, these skills seem to only develop if you follow an appropriate career. What I propose is a system similar to GDW's TNE.
Each two terms allows a +1 to one personal interest skill. Giving up one skill roll per term will allow a personal interest skill to raise by one, however, there is a -1 DM to advancement roll for focusing more on personal interests than career.
