Next Week
The focus of our work for Module 10 will be on creating a section for your resume that highlights your experience as a UTA. You also will have a chance to conduct a peer review for a classmate. Many or all of you already may have developed a resume. If you already have a resume, this will be something that you can include to update your resume. If you don't have a resume, this exercise will provide you with your first bit of information to include.
