About this project

Employers and industry are vital collaborators in helping prepare graduates with well developed career development and generic transferable skills. These skills will help to maximize the effective transition of graduates into employment and the workplace. For this project it is vital that we obtain relevant information and successful strategies currently being used in work integrated learning programs so that more effective and sustainable collaborative models can be implemented. Collaboration between employers and universities has always been an important element of graduate preparation, this project aims to capture and distill elements that can enhance the benefits for all involved.

This scoping study will use applied research to identify effective programs and initiatives in work integrated learning which ensure an effective contribution to career development learning. Good practice and innovative approaches including service learning in the wider community and industry engagement will be presented at a Symposium and will form the basis for the development of guidelines, benchmarks and resources for best practice.

It may be useful to visit the project website http://www.usq.edu.au/nagcascarrickproject/ and keep the two sites open simultaneously to enable you to revisit definitions and the survey structure. You may find it easier to print the pdf copy of the questionnaire to keep as a record.

Note: There is no capability to review or revise your responses once you "submit" your survey
