Most professionals treat curricula like a document — but a formatted CV, a rewritten profile, or a translated file aren’t enough. A strong curriculum adaptation isn’t just about meeting requirements. It’s about alignment, clarity, and presenting experience in a way that works across systems. This is how you turn a curriculum update into real academic and professional traction.
“An adaptation is not a formality. It’s a first evaluation.”
Updating a curriculum isn’t about rewriting sections or changing formats. It’s a strategic moment to realign experience, clarify progression, and ensure consistency across institutions and systems. At alfic., we approach curriculum adaptation intentionally — with processes that support both formal compliance and clear positioning.
Here’s how we structure a curriculum adaptation:
Assessment: Review the existing curriculum against target standards, institutions, and evaluation criteria.
Structuring: Rebuild hierarchy, sections, and sequencing to reflect progression and relevance.
Positioning: Refine language, emphasis, and framing to align with academic or professional expectations.
Finalisation: Deliver a clear, adaptable curriculum ready for submission across applications and reviews.
Elements we typically include:
Structured curriculum framework
Standards-aligned formatting
Role and progression clarity
Institution-ready versions
Supporting academic statements
Done well, a curriculum adaptation strengthens how experience is read, assessed, and understood. We make sure it communicates clearly — wherever it’s reviewed.
