The Transferable Skills Unit supports students to focus on and develop their transferable skills, building a personlised e-portfolio to showcase their skills story and boosting their degree as they enter the employment market.
These skills, such as communication, collaboration, problem solving, digital skills, are essential for success in both employment and lifelong learning.
As course directors, module coordinators and lecturers, you play a key role in helping students to recognise and articulate these skills through your teaching and assessment. By embedding transferable skills into your modules and making them explicit, you empower students to connect their academic learning to real-world competencies.
Explore the resources below to help you embed transferable skills into your modules and make them visible to students.
