Career and Technical Education Graduates’ Employability Skills:. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2010, Pages: 152
Preparing skilled and knowledgeable workforce that fits the labor market requires continued collaboration between education and work. Examining educators’ and employers’ perceptions on technical and non-technical skills may result in improving the quality of the graduates to compete on the level of the local as well as the global labor market. If workforce education is to be effective, work preparation cannot be restrained to technical content alone, but must also equip students with employability skills as well (Gray and Herr, 1998). Data for this study was collected via a validated and reliability tested questionnaire. The survey included three employability skills domains: fundamental skills, personal management skills, and teamwork skills.The study concluded with a discussion that includes comparing the results to the literature, comparing the assumptions to the findings of this study, and recommendations and implications for educators and the curriculum, for employers, and for future research along with the limitations of this study
