Education


Hi

My education is as follows:

2 years University in Environmental Science - did not graduate

diploma from community college in nursing

currently working towards a diploma is business administration.

I worked as a nurse for about 6 months but due to economic conditions, couldn't get full time and was forced to take another job. Have not worked as a nurse since. I have 8 years experience in administrative jobs.

How should I indicate my education on my resume? I'm about 3/4 of the way through my business diploma whichi I'm doing part time...

 

Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks!!!

Hi lizbeth,

You can lead with the degree program that's most relevant to your current goal. So if you're seeking a business-related position, your Education section might look like this:

ABC College - City, ST
Name of business diploma program (attend part time), expected completion 6/2008
Completed xx/xx credits. Related courses: (list courses if related to your goal)

DEF College - City, ST
Associate degree in nursing, date

You can choose to omit your environmental studies program if it's unrelated to your current objective.

Good luck,
