NUS HOLDINGS LIMITED - NUS Employability Skills system - Proof of Market

对于毕业生、学生和毕业生来说，了解自己拥有的技能对于获得、留在和跳槽至关重要。每年，雇主组织都会对毕业生申请者/新人所要求的技能/素质进行国际/国家调查。当被问及与职业或学术能力相比，85%的雇主更看重就业能力，而不是一般能力(63%)(CBI，EDI Education&Skills，2014年8月)。就业能力涵盖了广泛的非学术技能或在工作场所有价值的软技能(例如团队合作能力；主动性/原创性思维；在开始/完成任务的最后期限时的自律等)。FE和HEI已经开始提供就业能力技能指导。此外，一些学生工会将志愿服务作为学习新技能/提高就业能力的一种方式。然而，目前还没有得到国内或国际认可的方法来验证这些技能。存在的东西是不相连的。这意味着英国长期增长战略的一个重要部分(即青年就业和毕业生技能--根据CBI的说法，被视为支撑技能再平衡过程的关键)已经被妥协。解决方案--NUS就业能力体系--旨在通过发展资格(奖项、证书、文凭)和能力评估单位的认证体系，为就业能力技能提供通用的语言和环境。其目标是提供一种公认的、经Ofqual认可的就业能力衡量标准，由一种新的数字工具包支持，供学校、学院、大学和雇主等使用。概念系统打包为App，使用专有的行为算法和能力分数，上传到云平台，以增强学生在就业能力过程中的旅程，直到就业和职业提升。这种市场证明将验证需求/范围系统要求

For school leavers, students, and graduates, knowing what skills they have is vitally importantwhen it comes to securing, staying in and changing employment.Every year employers organisations carry out inter/national surveys into skills/qualitiesrequired of graduate applicants/recruits. When asked to rate 'Employability' skills compared tooccupational or academic aptitude, 85% of employers placed more importance on'Employability', than general aptitudes (63%) (CBI, EDI Education & Skills, Aug 2014).Employability covers a broad range of non-academic or softer skills which are of value in theworkplace (e.g. ability to team work; initiative /original thought; self-discipline in starting/completing tasks to deadline, etc).FE & HEI have begun to offer guidance on Employability skills. Further, some StudentUnions push volunteering as a way to learn new skills/enhance Employability. However, thereis currently no nationally or internationally recognised route to validate these skills. whatexists is disconnected. This means that a vital part of the UK’s long-term growth strategy (i.e.youth employment and graduate skills - seen as essential to underpin the skills rebalancingprocess, according to CBI), is compromised.The solution – the NUS Employability System – aims to provide a common language andenvironment for Employability Skills via the development of an accreditation system ofqualifications (Award, Certificate, Diploma) and units of competency assessment. The goal isto provide an accepted, and Ofqual accredited, measure of employability, supported by anovel digital toolkit for use by schools, colleges, universities and employers alike.Packaged as an App, the concept system uses proprietary behavioural algorithms andcompetency scores, uploaded to a Cloud platform, to augment a student journey through theemployability process, right up to employment and career enhancement.This proof of market will validate need/scope system requirements
