- So, what did our consultative and survey research reveal our graduate attribute framework to be? We found three capstone attributes that the majority agreed upon – Communication, Collaboration, Confidence. Our focus groups showed a three-way tie between Technical, Practical and Entrepreneurship, but when put to the popular test via our Embedding Employability Survey the capstone Practical was clearly the favourite. Therefore we termed our Framework the PCs Framework with a title line emphasis on Practical, a clear differentiator for us in a graduate labour market.

- Led by the DKIT Careers & Employability Centre, in conjunction with the DkIT Centre for Excellence in Learning & Teaching, the initiative was designed to create a shared vision of the DkIT Graduate, by consulting and collaborating with key stakeholders; students, alumni, DkIT staff and employers. This project was to acknowledge and celebrate the good practice that DKIT does to support employability, and to create a framework to build and extend this practice.
- This consultative process of collaboration with these key stakeholders has informed the development of an authentic set of DkIT graduate attributes and a bespoke DKIT employability framework. Due to Covid restrictions we were confined to interviews using Microsoft Teams, but you can see from this slide that this did not stop us reaching every corner of the institute, to give voice to every set of student services and subject groups, from lecturer to Heads of Schools and Directors of Services...

- We would like to refer you to the Employability Statement circulated, whose comprehensive content overview is represented here. Once approved this document will receive branded design. The statement comprises of four main areas including but not limited to: The DkIT Employability Model and Graduate Attribute Framework with outlines of how we plan to focus on attribute-led employability and how it will be embedded in the curriculum. It moves to a outline of the offering and resources from Careers Services perspectives and then to Industry-Partnered Success for programme, entrepreneurship and corporate success. We close with direction to key institute and national policies we will remain cognisant of.
- As you've previewed before – this is our model of graduate employability. .... If time... Just to give you an overview of our Employability Model, which is central to our statement... To understand how DkIT graduates greet employment, we charted a process model. This model aims to shape how we think strategically as an institute about employability and guides our advice to students. Our model makes explicit a range of factors influencing employability—not just our skills and knowledge, but also our attributes, personal circumstances, career mindset, upbringing, economic context, and our social networks, online and offline. Put simply, Human Capital refers to ‘What We Bring’, Social Capital refers to ‘Who We Know’, Career Mindset refers to ‘How We Do’, and Attributes to ‘Who We Are’. We recognise that we live in a jobs market governed by micro labour market and macro labour market factors. Central to how these factors interact to bring about employment successes, is Perceived Employability; and we see perceived employability as central to how employable we feel and perceive our job readiness. You may refer to DkIT's Employability Statement for full copy. We turn now to our DkIT Graduate Attributes & Mindsets.

- Graduate attributes from a DkIT student perspective communicates who we are, who we are to relevant audiences, and who we become. A graduate attribute framework is useful not only because it provides a marketing apparatus to gain the attention of employers and prospective students, but a promise to our students regarding the authentic set of aspirations possible for all who attend DkIT, to help them survive and thrive in the real world.
