B3 Regulations! Don't Panic Just Embed and Assess Employability

The b3 conditions and in particularly the progression outcome of having 60% attain a positive outcome proposes a significant challenge for many schools within the University. We know from our own research that many students do not engage extensively with the career service during their time at university and many of them fail commonly used psychometric tests required to get graduate jobs. Our research also indicates that embedding employability within the curriculum can be successful at increasing intentions to apply for internships and enhance their career planning. The challenge for universities is how to implement effective employability initiatives into the curriculum whilst taking with them university staff and students. This talk will address each of these points.
