Description
The Bases of Competence: Skills for Lifelong Learning and Employability by James C. Rush, Iris Berdrow, and Frederick T. Evers is a comprehensive guide to cultivating essential skills in students. It addresses the gap between academic training and workplace requirements, providing a common language for educators and employers to create practical and enduring learning experiences. The book identifies four key skill combinations most desired by employers: Managing Self, Communicating, Managing People and Tasks, and Mobilizing Innovation and Change. Drawing on research and case studies from various institutional settings and workplaces, the authors demonstrate how developing competencies can narrow this gap, providing students with a portfolio of basic skills that translate into lifelong employability. By understanding these essential skills, educators can strengthen their curriculum to better prepare students for success in today's dynamic workplace environment.
