Bridges: Fostering Personal Development and Employability

 

Status: complete

Funding Initiative: CETL

 

Description

The University of Bedfordshire has developed a distinctive undergraduate curriculum which seeks to support students’ learning through integrating academic and personal development with transferable and career management skills.

This CETL supported further development of the curriculum and, in particular, the use of personal development planning with students from diverse backgrounds across a range of subjects. It examined how these processes could be used to ‘bridge back’ to students’ prior experiences and ‘bridge forward’ to their future career ambitions. The CETL had a strong research and evaluation dimension and approaches and resources will be shared with the wider academic community.
