Project Aims

This project considers two key questions:

  1. What are the key challenges involved in developing workforces that fulfil the needs of businesses, organisations, industry sectors and economies around the world?
  2. How can we start to build practical solutions that result in truly effective education for employment provision?

What is effective education for employment?

For the purposes of this project, effective education for employment is defined as:

'the development and assessment of the requisite skills, knowledge and behaviours that constitute an effective employee in the 21st century'.

In some countries, this is collectively described as a 'skill set'.
