Ask HN: Strategy for 1-2 years of self-education?

Hey HN.

I'll soon have my masters degree in a field that is rather vague. Judging from the employment-status in my homecountry, getting a job will be tough. I'm education within the softer IT-domain, which means that communication, UX, systemsdevelopment are my primary skills.

If you had 1 or 2 years to learn any programming/development skill - what would it be and why?

I'm considering webdevelopment (HTML/CSS/JS/SQL+ something else) since I have some hobby-experience doing websites (mostly in Wordpress, but that's mainly because it's fast and the CMS suits me and the customers I've had).
