Skills & Attributes
The Skills & Attributes area helps you understand the skills you are building through your studies and extra curricular activities, and how these connect to your academic progress and future goals.
In this area, you can rate your confidence against the Skills & Attributes at any time, and as often as you wish. Each response is saved, so you can look back on previous entries and see how your confidence has changed over time.
You can recognise your strengths, identify areas you would like to develop further, and prepare for discussions with your Academic Adviser about your progress and future plans.
You will also be able to access a Skills Catalogue, which brings together opportunities and resources to support your development.
