- W335047441 abstract "as an Aspect of Quality of Higher Education Employability, or more precisely, benefit and usefulness of study programme for career and work tasks, is regarded as an aspect of quality of higher education (Storen & Aamodt, 2010). This realization is evidenced by many official pronouncements and curriculum guidance services offered to higher education institutions. The Bologna Accord aims to create a European Higher Education Area that promotes mobility, employability and attractiveness of Europe as an educational region (Official Bologna Process website http://www.ehea.info/article-details.aspx?ArticleId=3). The Higher Education Academy in UK has published extensive literature on supporting employability (e.g., The Higher Education Academy, 2011; Mantz, 2006). Curriculum design aimed at enhancing employability requires greater clarity in its definition. Mantz (2006) suggests that Employability is a (multi-faceted) characteristic of individual.... a set of achievements--skills, understandings and personal attributes--that makes graduates more likely to gain employment and be successful in their chosen occupations, which benefits themselves, workforce, community and economy. (p. 8). D'Acre-Pool and Sewell (2007) describe employability as having a set of skills, knowledge, understanding and personal attributes that make a person more likely to choose and secure occupations in which they can be satisfied and successful. (p. 280). What are Attributes that Promote Employability? Relevant subject-matter knowledge and are traditional attributes. However, it has been realized that additional skills are vital to being able to function successfully in an organization in present era. Russell, Russell, and Tastle (2005), referring to employability of Information Systems' students, stress to communicate effectively in both oral and written format (p. 1). They define soft most frequently enumerated by industry as the ability to: 1) demonstrate effective interpersonal relations, 2) demonstrate self-management strategies, 3) work within teams, 4) solve problems creatively and 5) make decisions. (p. 1). Westerstrom and Westerstrom (2009) claim that To be employable as an engineer in today's global market, you will need theoretical hard skills, like fundamental knowledge of science, mathematics and engineering design, and problem solving skills; soft like communication skills, managerial skills, negotiation and interpersonal skills; global like being able to work multidisciplinary, with societal issues and solutions on global problems. As well, knowing what working life demands, a feeling for economy and markets, empathy and emotional intelligence are also needed. (p. 5). These claims are corroborated by HEFCE (2003) comprehensive research which reports on main job skill requirements analyzed by interviews with 192 managers who employed university graduates. The list included ability to seek out new information, problem solving ability, ability to work on one's own without supervision, numeracy, written communication skills, formal presentation skills, team-working skills, computing/IT and ability to identify solutions to customers' business problems (p. 13). The importance of issue has led to creation of several general models. Yorke and Knight (2006) offer 4-component model: Understanding, Skills, Efficacy beliefs and Metacognition. D'Acre-Pool and Sewell (2007) define CareerEDGE model: Career Development Learning, Experience (Work and Life), Degree Subject Knowledge, Understanding and Skills, Generic Skills (including Enterprise skills), Emotional Intelligence model. How have HE Institutions Responded to Challenge? The wide spectrum of required attributes presents a serious challenge to institutions of higher education (HE) wishing to act on their commitment to employability of students in different departments. …" @default.
