, Part A: Identifying strengths and development areas
Student number:
________________________________
Required:
You are required to source a job advertisement for a newly qualified CA(SA). Consider
the skills (excluding technical “know-how”) that a newly qualified CA(SA) is required
to have.
From the selected advertisement, identify one skill that you consider to be your
strength and one skill that you consider to be your development area.
When identifying your strength and development area:
identify your strength and development area that is related to your application for
the selected job advertisement – such as “I have strong active listening skills in
communication” or “I would like improve my ability to work in a team”. You will
concentrate on improving these areas throughout the year, so make sure they are
things that are important to you;
you should identify one strength and one development area in total; and
keep it simple and realistic, as you will be required to explain how you intend to
enhance your strength or improve your development area by the end of the year.
IMPORTANT:
Your activities are graded by means of a rubric.
Students MUST NOT complete this rubric. It is for the MARKER to complete. The
rubric is provided to you so that you may know the criteria against which your activity
will be graded.
