Hi
Could anyone please give me some examples on how they filled out the Employability skills page at the end of the booklet.
I'm stuck on how to word it and get started and what is expected?
Thank you for your help in advance

Hi L.A
At the back of the book is a table with the following headings Employability Skills
Communication
Teamwork
Planning and Organising
Initiative and enterprise
Problem-solving
self-management
Technology
Learning
And there is column next to each section that we need to write the activities undertaken to develop the employability skills. I don't know why I just can't get my head around this on how to word it and what they expect.
Thank you for your help.
Jojo
