Setting up a CV

Suggestions for putting curriculum vitae onto the Global Collaborative.

Background

Many organizations want to set up a section that describes their staff and their accomplishments.  One way to do this is to publish the curriculum vitae for each staff member. 

Structure

  • Within your staff folder, make a folder for each person.
  • Within each folder, you will probably end up with a general description of skills and accomplishments, an image and (especially for academics) a list of publications.
    • Some staff will put their publications onto the Global Collaborative, too.  You might find it handy to store these in yearly folders (2007, 2006, 2005, and so on). This will make them easier to manage in the long term.
  • In each person's folder, use the [Display] menu to [Select a  content item as default view...]. This will allow you to make each CV into a page, rather than a list of files.
  • In the staff folder, you have the choice of creating a page that lists the staff and links to their CVs or using the [standard view] to list them with their brief descriptions.
