![Page 16: Are you employable ? To know more attend "Employability skills" Training Program.............](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55398ef4550346592f8b49c2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Recommendations
•No one “right” way, but employability and enterprise must be central to education•Embed within programmes – not an
optional extra
![Page 17: Are you employable ? To know more attend "Employability skills" Training Program.............](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55398ef4550346592f8b49c2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Three big changes required...
• Skills embedded in programmes – not “do you know how to do it?”, but “have you done it?”
• Leadership and mentoring module– compulsory part of every programme
• Team working assignments- having to work with people you don’t like, persuading and
influencing, presentation skills
![Page 18: Are you employable ? To know more attend "Employability skills" Training Program.............](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55398ef4550346592f8b49c2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
...and the biggest one of all
- cross disciplinary problems- synthesising knowledge
- concentrates on “real world” application
- managing in an uncertain environment- group dynamics

We develop in them?
