- Date: 1 Feb 2012
- Start Time: 10:30 am
- Location/venue: Winchester Business School, The University of Winchester, West Downs Campus
This free to attend participatory workshop, hosted by Winchester Business School at University of Winchester and supported by Employability Special Interest Group of the former BMAF Subject Centre, aims to generate discussion and debate about the practice of enhancing the employability of Business and Management students. The employability special interest group invites you to attend the discussions and/or to present your experience of enhancing employability with a particular emphasis on Sustainable Employability. We are particularly interested in how you are developing employability skills and knowledge to ensure 21st century graduates can keep and develop their jobs.
Attendees will be invited to give a short presentation on your employability initiative and full papers will not be required (Deadline: Monday 23rd January 2012)
We welcome presentations from those new to employability as well as those more experienced practitioners and researchers. The day will also include presentations from the Careers Service at University of Winchester on their successful volunteering module and Beverly Leeds from Lancashire Business School at UCLAN who will present a talk on the use of an e-portfolio tool to enhance employability.
The remainder of the day will provide an opportunity to share existing practice concerning employability in the Business and Management subject area. You are also welcome to join the workshop without making a presentation,
