Education and training
Under this heading, make a separate entry for each course completed, i.e., each course leading to a qualification,
starting with the most recent.
Notes:
if your work experience is still limited (because you have just left school or university), describe your education and
-
training first (to invert the order of the two headings, use the `copy/paste' command in your word processing software);
there is no need to show all your qualifications: do not go back as far as primary school if you hold a university degree;
-
focus on the qualifications which are an asset to your application;
reproduce the table (using the `copy/paste' command in your word processing software) as many times as required. To
-
delete a heading, use the `Table' commands menu in your word processing software.
