Skills Audit Analysis: This section is designed to get you thinking about your own
strengths as well as identifying things you’d like to be better at.
Transferable Skills Analysis: We’re then going to look at skills you feel can be
applied to the course and your career as an Esports professional, which you may have
learned in other aspects of your life.
Identifying and applying effective working practices: Finally, we’ll look at some
established effective working practices which you’ll discuss the importance of. You’ll
then grade yourself out of ten for each one.

Part 1: Look at the twelve skills and place them in order of difficulty, with the most
difficult first (you can do this by cutting and pasting them in order):
Time management 7
Working with others 11
Speaking in front of people 3
Motivation and staying motivated 5
Effective use of session time 6
Getting started on work 2
Presentation skills 4
Use of IT skills 12
Writing skills 8
Memory 9
Evaluating own work 1
Reading skills 10
Part 2: Now use the ‘traffic light’ system to highlight which you feel is the most or
least difficult for you (you can do this by changing the text colour)
Red – major priority which needs working on a lot
Amber (or yellow) – difficult, but manageable
Green – confident
Part 3: Write a few lines of what you can do to turn each of the red and amber
priorities into green.
I work independently a lot when I do most of my work and this could come in
handy when doing esports as not everything is a group activity.
Other Transferable Skills (Dealing with things)
I used to take flute and piano lessons in secondary school and excelled at the
piano. During esports I could use this skill to make soundtracks for games.
Working with People
When working with people I am very sensitive and listen to whatever they have to
say. I could use this during esports to absorb information if I wanted to be an
agent and fight for a teams’ best interests.
Using Words, Ideas
Leadership
Next, choose ONE transferable skill from each coloured section which you might
identify as being your strongest (you might highlight four skills for Leadership,
but which is your strongest?).
Write a little next to each of these Identifying how you have used each of these
chosen skills AND how this skill might be useful on the Level 3 Esports course.
OK, for this one I’d like you to give a brief description of how you can apply
each of the following twenty effective working practices to the Level 3 Esports
course and why these are considered important. Also grade yourself out 10

important as it helps highlight things I could do improve.
