Facilitating and Supporting Employability in Law: Reflections on the Need for Agile Communication
Kate Tubridy
Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, v15 n2 p72-75 2024
There is an increasing focus on enhancing employability for students in higher education. Yet academics who facilitate and encourage opportunities to support student employability are often doing so with a quiet agility. This paper reflects on my first year coordinating a work-integrated learning program and the development of skills necessary for such roles in a tertiary law context. Grounded in the well-recognised literature on positive professional identity and contemplating the concept of 'pracademic identity', these reflections offer insights on the experience of traversing across multiple professional spheres to enhance employability for students. In particular, this reflection piece seeks to uncover and highlight the skills essential to roles facilitating employability for law students.
