Employability Skills Portfolio for Academic and Professional Writing 

Introduction

The webpage highlights the significant employability skills I have developed throughout my module.  These skills for instance willingness to learn and meeting commitments- demonstrate my growth and readiness for future professional opportunity.

Meeting Commitments&Deadlines

Meeting deadlines is a professional skill as it demonstrates reliability and efficiency. During my studies, I enhanced this skill by planning ahead, breaking tasks into smaller steps, using digital tools to track progress. Being able to submitting course works on time and managing multiple responsibilities strengthened my ability to stay organised and fulfil commitments. 

Persistence

Persistence consists of continuing to work through difficulties without giving up. I developed this skill by remining focused during  challenging assignments and seeking support when required. Even when tasks were complex, I remained committed ti the progression of my work, which  increased both my confidence and resilience. Such as, when working on assignments that required new digital tools, i continued practising them until I felt adequately confident, instead of up at the first  difficulty. I also gathered knowledge to break complex issues into manageable steps, which help-ed me to remain motivated 

Trustworthiness

Trustworthiness is an essential employability skill as it implies reliability, honesty, and accountability in both academic and professional life. Throughout this module, I strengthened my trustworthiness by consistently completing tasks I committed to and communicating openly with colleagues and lecturers. I ensured  to be honest about my progress, seek for help when needed, and take in my responsibility for the quality of my work. In group tasks, I showed that others could depend on me by meeting expectations, delivering on time, and respecting shared responsibilities. These behaviours helped build positive working relationships and demonstrated that I can be relied on to act professionally.

Following Instructions 

Being able to understand and follow instructions to significant in both workplace and academic environments. I practised this skill by carefully reviewing projects briefs, enquiring clarifying questions and ensuring my work aligned with given requirements. This helped me reduce mistakes and produce accurate outcomes.

Conclusion

Overall, the employability skills I developed throughout this module in the last few months have played  and important role in improving  both academic performance and my readiness for the workplace. BY enhancing  my ability to meet commitments and deadlines, manage my time productively, and prioritise tasks, I have become more organised and disciplined  in my approach to work. 

Strengthening expertise such as trustworthiness, persistence, and following instructions has also helped me build a professional mindset that supports strong teamwork, reliability and responsibility.
