  CRE / Lee Harvey Employability Reports

Lee has recently produced a report entitled Enhancing Employability, Recognising Diversity for Universities UK, which outlines some initiatives with case studies of enployability development in universities in the UK.

This has been greatly expanded and developed as an on-line resource exploring the Transitions from Higher Education to Work. It is one of the ESECT Perspectives series and is published on the LTSN Generic Centre website as a rich text file or is avilable from CRE as an interactive file.

Tamsin MacLeod-Brudenell has also prepared an overview of the contentious debate on widened access: Are There Too Many Graduates?

The following research reports cover employability issues and are available on-line:

Graduates’ Work: Organisational change and students' attributes 1997.

A short version of Graduates' Work has been produced especially as an aide memoire for students, it is entitled Graduates' Work: A guide to future employment.

Work Experience: Expanding opportunities for undergraduates 1998

Destinations and Reflections: Careers of British art, craft and design graduates 1999 (Executive Summary)

In addition, the Centre has hosted a seminar on Employability, which among other things resulted in a paper on An Employability Performance Indicator.

In addition, Lee Harvey has recently published an article on the concept of employability in a special issue of Quality in Higher Education (volume 7, number 2).

A new report for HECSU on HE Careers Services and Diversity by Alistair Morey, Lee Harvey, Paula Mena, James Williams and Abril Sladana also addresses employability issues and the issue of embedding versus special initiatives.

Lee's short paper 'On Employability' is also published on the ILT website, available to ILT members.
