Assessing Soft Skills

Employers hire on the basis of
‘Hard Skills’

They sack employees that lack
‘Soft Skills’

Informal Education helps young
people develop their Soft Skills

There are lots of Soft Skills!

There are lots of ‘leadership’
programmes

& activities for
‘confidence building’

But what is ‘confidence’ &
‘leadership’?

How does this.......

....lead to this?

How do young people transfer
‘learned skills’ to real life?

and understand what
they have gained?

How do practitioners identify the soft
skills young people need to develop?

How do they ensure young people
access the right opportunities to
develop the right soft skills?

How do we assess soft skills?

How do we measure progress?

How do we recognise
competence or mastery?

How do employers recognise
achievement & development?
