MOE SUPPORTS STEP-HOSTED HR TRAINING WORKSHOP
Basseterre, St. Kitts: The Ministry of Education (MOE) is collaborating
with the Skills Training Empowerment Programme (STEP) and the St. Kitts Nevis Anguilla
Training and Development Centre (TDC) to support a human resource development initiative
aimed at strengthening professional skills within the workforce.
The workshop, which focuses on curriculum vitae (CV) and résumé writing as well as interview
preparation, is hosted by STEP and facilitated by TDC. The Ministry of Education is providing
key support for the initiative, ensuring that participants can benefit fully from the training
sessions.
Mrs. Dawn Hodge-Percival, Training Officer, STEP, explained that the initiative is designed to
equip individuals with essential skills for professional development and workplace readiness.
“The training is about CV writing and interviews, so that participants can gain better knowledge
about how to write a CV and how to answer interview questions during an interview session. We
hope that at the end of this training, the participants will be more knowledgeable about CV
writing and interview skills.”
Ms. Chantel Lewis, participant in the training, shared that the programme has been a positive and
empowering experience, helping to build confidence and strengthen her ability to present herself
effectively in professional settings.
“I am one of the participants in the CV and interview training. It is going awesome. I have learnt
how to write a resume and how to put forth myself better when it comes to having an interview.
At the end of the session, I will be able to write my own CV without the help of others. The
training from the interview will help boost my confidence. I will also be able to sit in an
interview without being nervous. I am now also equipped with the knowledge and skills that are
needed for an interview.”
This collaborative effort forms part of ongoing measures to enhance employability and
professional readiness among individuals. Participants are expected to gain practical knowledge
and skills that will better position them for career advancement and workforce engagement.
