Learning objectives
The principal aim of this module is to reflect on the importance of creating an effective CV, as it gives you the opportunity to summarise your educational path as well as your skills and experience. Each participant will focus on personal and work-related qualities, which will be translated into English and integrated in a new CV. The layout of the CV matters just as much as its contents, so special attention will be also given to the visual dimension.
Prerequisites and basic notions
English language level equivalent or superior to B1.
Program
The module will cover the following topics:
• Describing personal and professional qualities
• Describing hobbies, interests and sporting achievements (which can be important to include on your CV)
• Choosing the right layout
Didactic methods
Blended-learning. The module will include a 3-hour class and 3 hours of online activities on which students will receive feedback from the instructor.
