Graduate Employability Across Contexts : Perspectives, Initiatives and Outcomes Paperback / softback

Edited by Tran Le Huu Nghia, Binh Chi Bui, Jasvir Kaur Nachatar Singh, Vinh N. Lu

Paperback / softback

Description

This book explores stakeholders’ perspectives, their practices, and engagement with enacting the employability agenda in the context of a rapidly changing world.

It explains the need for developing graduate employability under socioeconomic, cultural, and political pressure exposed to the higher education sector.

Largely framed within Bourdieu’s concepts of social field, habitus, and capital, it explores international stakeholders’ perspectives and experiences with graduate employability agenda in different contexts, which serves as a point of reference for the adoption of such initiatives.

Based on empirical evidence, the authors develop a new graduate employability framework seeing it as a lifelong process, denote the relationships between types of employability capital, and shed light on the consequences of different strategies to translate employability capital to employment and career outcomes.

Overall, this book generates both theoretical and practical insights which help to advance employability programs, better prepare the future workforce, and anticipate turbulence in the labour markets.
