Project Outputs

The Student-led Employability Audit Toolkit project resulted in a range of outputs detailed below:

1. Advice on how to go about developing an employability audit based on the experience of the University of Exeter and relevant national reports, articles and weblinks

2. Relevant tools and case studies to support the conduction of an employability audit

3. Conference presentations capturing the progress of the employability audit at the University of Exeter
