Do make use of the other free courses available on the Glow & Lovely Careers (formerly known as Fair & Lovely Career Foundation) website to add more value to your education and experience. Of course, candidates with academic knowledge are highly valued in every field. But, you will also be tested in other areas by your potential employers.

We recommend English for Doing Business in Asia -- Speaking, and English for Doing Business in Asia -- Writing courses to help you with your English. Both of these courses are free. You may not apply for certification for these soft skills courses. Sometimes, mere demonstration of positive body language and clear communication is enough.
