Education Resume
In most situations, unless you have held a large number of jobs, had
frequent periods of unemployment or you are changing career fields, the
chronological resume format is your safest option.

however, you need a
different approach. The
curriculum vitae, or CV resume format is the best option for an
education resume.
This resume format focuses on four separate categories:·
- Education
- Academic Positions
- College Courses Taught
- Publications
The following
sample education resume is based on
the CV format and clearly demonstrates the above principles.
