What support do you need for meeting these expectations?

STAGE TWO

Review and mapping

Which of the ‘employability features’ do you currently address?

How do you audit this?

What is the extent of your students’ awareness of ‘employability’?

STAGE THREE

Action

Have you identified any gaps from Stages 1& 2?

Your sharing practices?

Required support?

STAGE FOUR

Evaluate

Evidence for a defined, cohesive and comprehensive approach?

Effectiveness?

Evidence from your alumni?

Other comments for a defined, cohesive and comprehensive approach to employability?
