Course overview
Course description
This course helps you learn how to write a clear and simple CV. It is often needed when you apply for a job, a course, or a volunteering role.
During the course, you will learn what a CV is and why employers ask for one. You will look at the different parts of a CV, including personal details, skills, work experience, education, and interests. You will think about your own strengths and what you would like to include on your CV.
You will take part in simple activities to help you identify your skills and experiences. This may include work you have done, volunteering, hobbies, or things you have learned in everyday life. You will practise writing short sentences and organising your information so it is easy to read.
You will also look at examples of CVs and learn what employers like to see. The tutor will support you step by step as you build your own CV.
By the end of the course, you will have created a basic CV that you can use when applying for jobs, courses, or volunteering opportunities, and you will feel more confident presenting your skills.
