Present and Future Skills 

One of the major challenges is deciding on a career. The possibilities may seem either very limited or too many. The following activity helps you to check what skills you have now as well as getting an idea of those you wish to develop. It won’t tell you which career is for you, you will need to talk about your answers with people you trust, such as your family, school counselor or careers adviser. 

Take some time to go through the list of skills words to help you identify those you currently have ( column a ) and those you wish to develop ( column b ). The spaces in the columns are for you to enter examples of how you have used these skills. You will be surprised at what you have already done! This step will help you to complete your resume and may help you to choose a career.
