Intellectual Output 3

Based on the gap between the students’ expertises and employers’ requirements identified in the Intellectual Output 2, a resource containing tools and information that will help recent graduates to enhance their soft skills was created. Thus, the Intellectual Output 3 is a developmental platform that can be used by students to improve a specific soft skill. While this output will be included in the final Gen Y Virtual Guide, its chapter(s) comprises of a selection of methods, such as videos of seminars and trainings, practical resource suggestions (books, articles, etc.) that can be used to develop a set of various skills. In addition, in order to improve the quality of the given platform, recruitment experts were videorecorded about their opinions on extracurricular ways to develop top employability skills.

Students were also asked on their suggestions. Furthermore, in the framework of this project, a special “Employability Skill Development Boot Camp” wasorganised. The details of the boot camp were described in Learning / Teaching / Training Activities. A report on the Boot camp is also published and can be found in the relevant section. The outcomes from the above activities was organized and finalized into “Youth Employability Skills Development Resources” chapter. The results were later integrated into the Gen Y Virtual Guide.
