Skills CV session

This session encourages students to develop statements to evidence their Transferable Skills.

Students will already have many transferable skills but developing the statements to evidence them to potential employers and university Admissions Tutors is often difficult. This session encourages students to begin building a Skills CV to allow them to collate the evidence from their different experiences. The aim is to write statements illustrating the skills and to identify where additional development be needed.
