ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´

The Employability Framework guide outlines a vast array of opportunities that exist on campus to build a student’s employability. This guide is a resource for students to develop their employability throughout their academic journey in an intentional manner. Students achieve key career competencies by participating in opportunities outlined in these four domains. It is important to ensure students are aware of their skill development and are able to articulate how they have developed these competencies during their time at ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´.

The four areas in which students can get involved and boost their employability are:

• Curricular
  • ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ offers many valuable opportunities to formally connect students’ career goals to their academics, all while enhancing the employability and learning for our students.
• Co-curricular
  • ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ offers extensive co-curricular opportunities that complement the academic experience, while also building the employability of our students and serving as meaningful experiential learning opportunities.  Included in the guide are a range of examples of ways in which students can gain co-curricular experience to enhance their employability.
• Service Delivery
  • Through ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ and Career Services’ extensive service delivery options, our students are prepared for all aspects of employability from career exploration through to the practicalities of developing a strong resume or preparing for an interview.  The guide includes is a list of services available to students to support the development of their employability.
• Employer Connections
