| description | Institutions of higher learning need to re-evaluate their teaching-learning approaches to
develop the necessary employability skills for their graduates. The main objectives of this
study are to identify the important employability skills and the corresponding
employability skills development approaches in a Malaysian setting. The results of the
application of an analytic network process (ANP) show that the 'ability to speak fluently
in English' is the most important skill, followed by the 'ability to write effectively in
English' and the 'ability to think critically'. On the other hand, the most effective
employability skills development approach is found to be 'work-integrated learning'. The
other effective approaches are identified as 'stand-alone subject model', 'academic
support programme', 'embedded subject model', 'non-academic support programme' and
'campus life activities'. |
