The Higher Education job market is more competitive than ever. With so much change happening across the sector, applicants need to stand out from the crowd.

Relying on ChatGPT or another AI tool to generate your cover letter won’t get you there. Unless it’s very well trained, the result will be generic and full of tell-tale signs — like overuse of em-dashes, “not just this, but that” phrasing, and surface-level summaries.

Even strong applicants often miss the subtle, between-the-lines signals of what the role is really about. They focus on what the job advert is asking for, but fail to address the person specification, which is where most recruiting managers in HE direct their attention.

That gap is where otherwise qualified candidates lose out.

The Cover Letter Course for Higher Education Professionals is a short, tactical course designed to help you write cover letters that get noticed.

No fluff. No guesswork. Just clear guidance and proven templates tailored to the HE sector.
