In this month’s issue, Teaching Matters is delighted to be working in close partnership with the Careers Service to showcase innovative and interesting teaching practices that focus on Employability and Graduate Attributes. In the first blog post, Shelagh Green, Director for Careers and Employability, introduces this month’s theme with a discussion on the meanings behind the terms ’employability’ and ‘graduate attributes’.
