Join Kellie McMullin from Nova Scotia Community College, Gianni Samsa from Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore and Nannette Ripmeester from Expertise in Labour Mobility for their LIVE EAIE session about “The employability gap: What’s the value of study abroad?’‘.
Global employability skills are key to students’ careers after graduation. Although there is a lot of research to back this statement up, there is still a lot of work to be done with students before they study abroad to prepare them to properly understand and articulate these skills. This session will provide insight and strategies from two very distinct institutions – a Canadian community college and an Italian research university – on how to set students up for success. Join us – it will be fun!
This year’s EAIE conference will surround the theme ‘The future in full colour’ which essentially embraces the growing spectrum of tools for internationalization. ”The theme attempts to explore how we, as practitioners, can draw on this diverse pallet to paint a vivid and inclusive picture of our shared future. Through the various session formats exploring this theme, a kaleidoscope of perspectives on approaches to internationalization will enhance our collective effort to advance our work at an important moment of recovery and renewal”.
Make sure you save the date for 13 September–16 September!
