This interactive plenary session focuses on how to draft a resume (CV) for an academic application that provides sufficient  information to give a clear insight into your profile. A good academic CV showcases your skills and your academic and professional achievements concisely and effectively, while trying to maintain a balance in the amount of information.

Through discussion, shared experience and a few authentic examples, Tom De Moor can respond to frequently raised questions, debunk certain myths and provide tips & tricks in terms of content, structure and style.

He specializes in academic English for doctoral and professorial staff, with a specific focus on application skills.
