It is also not just:

About WIL
The responsibility of the Careers service alone
Solely the responsibility of your employability champions or leads
Something you leave until the final year of studies
Not something that conflicts with what all academics would hope to see in good students

There is a positive flip side to all of this but we do need to bust some myths to engage people from the outset.

I like this. We have previously taken a slightly different angle and chosen to define ’embedding employability’ as providing the opportunities to develop the knowledge, skills, experiences, attitude and behaviours to enable graduates to make successful transitions and contributions, benefitting them, the economy and their communities.
I like that you have added life in the new definition because this is about looking beyond the boundaries of a job, work and career. This should be about developing the whole person. Learning for life ?
