Bridge the gap between education and career with the Living CV.
The Living CV program supports students by encouraging them to regularly update their CV throughout their time at university, to track and showcase their growth (and avoid a last-minute panic!). It's a document that 'lives' within Adobe Express, and develops and grows with students throughout their time at university. It enables them to:
Track their progress: A record of skills & knowledge they've acquired.
Showcase Growth: Recognise & articulate their skills, knowledge and experience.
Career Readiness: By graduation, students will have a comprehensive and up-to-date CV that reflects their academic and personal development.
