• access, maintenance and currency are issues still to be fully
resolved

Employability refers to a person's ability to gain and maintain employment. It depends on their knowledge, skills, abilities, and how they present themselves to employers, as well as external factors like the job market. Employability encompasses the factors that enable people to get, keep, and advance in jobs. For students and graduates, employability means the achievements, skills, understandings, and attributes that make them more likely to get work and succeed in their chosen careers. This benefits individuals, employers, the economy, and society. Experiential learning like placements, internships, volunteering, and research projects can help improve students' employability by allowing them to apply classroom knowledge and gain hands-on work skills.

JISC Maturity Toolkit UWS Presentation Skye, April 2013 [original: Lea McKay]

This document outlines a project between Kibble Education and Care Centre and the University of the West of Scotland to develop a degree program incorporating prior learning and work-based learning.
