Hi Ruth
It
might also be worth including a link to the HEA’s EvidenceNet site
which currently has 775 resources, events and networks tagged with
“employability and employer engagement” pedagogic theme:
Hope
this helps?
All the best

Subject: Web sites and Journals
for employability research
Hello everyone
I am compiling a list of ‘starting’ places to
look re (graduate) employability research
This is for a colleague thinking about doing
a PhD in this - but it will be useful for me too.
I would like to add any journals but can’t
think of any – am I going mad? I know there have been some special editions of
some journals but I can’t think of any dedicated to Employability and am
thinking that if there isn’t one, should we start one?
Anyway, assuming I am simply having a
menopausal moment and have forgotten the obvious re web sites and journals I would
appreciate you checking out my list so far and adding your favourites
So far I have this:
The
Higher Education Academy (HEA)
http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/ourwork/teachingandlearning/employability
The
Centre for Recording Achievement is an associate of HEA and holds lots of
research relating to 'Personal Development Planning' (PDP) which has strong
connections to career and employability eg they have been doing work relating
to Graduate Attributes http://www.recordingachievement.org/.
There
were a number of Centres of Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL's) who
had employability remits:
UCLAN - http://www.uclan.ac.uk/information/uclan/employability/index.php
Sheffield Hallam - http://employability.shu.ac.uk/
Uni of Bedfordshire - http://www.beds.ac.uk/bridgescetl
Uni of Reading - http://www.reading.ac.uk/ccms/
All suggestions welcome and I will compile
and share them back with the list
Best wishes all
