Try Contacting Schools to Learn Number of Completed Credit-Hours

|

Celeste writes:

I am helping to update my husband’s resume because his part-time, substitute bus-driving job is about to end. My dilemma is that he attended at technical college for a year and then transferred to community college, but we couldn’t afford the fees for him to continue to obtain his degree - so, how do I list that on the resume? I would ordinarily use his credit-hours, but he hasn’t a clue how many he has, and I’m unsure what to do.


The Career Doctor responds:

I would normally recommend listing credit hours. Can he not contact the schools to ask how many hours he completed? If not, I would just list the span of dates of attendance, the names and locations (city, state) of the schools, and area of study, if any.
