Ensuring employable graduates – how
our sector can help
Panel Members
• Jeff Lynch, GLL
• Jon Glenn, Swim England
• Russ Smith, Street Games
• Steven Osborne, Cardiff Metropolitan University
• Matt Rhodes, AoC Sport
• Spencer Moore, CIMSPA
Setting the scene, recent or old news?
• ‘More than half of major employers (UK) say that the
graduates they hire are not ‘work ready’ on leaving
university’
• ‘Communication skills, teamwork, resilience and
punctuality are among the attributes employers want’
(Research conducted by YouGov with 635 employers, Times, 2013)
Education investment in our sector
2014 / 15
• £112M spent on training apprentices
• £113M spent on educating student in FE
• £600M spent on educating student in HE
• £300M spent on training by employers and individuals
• TOTAL of £1.1B per year invested into education and training
Yet…
Most employers in our sector state college and university graduates not fit for
purpose
20% of all vacancies in our sector are classed as “hard to fill” due to significant
skills shortages (approximately 17,200 vacancies per year).
So…
We need an education pathway that:
• Maximises government investment
• Produces a fit for purpose workforce
• Is attractive to individuals studying in it
• That employers own and “invest” into
Employability and Employment - Challenges
• Perceptions and interpretations
• Engagement (Staff, Students and
Industry)
• Reaching ALL students and
joining up the dots
• Industry awareness (for all
students)
• Work - Related Learning (for all
students)
• Measuring impact
Creating Professional Standards
Professional standard – understanding the knowledge, skills and behaviours an
individual needs to be effective in a job role
Where do we start?
