Abstract

Discourse on graduate employability issues has centered on issues relating to the “quality” or rather the lack of quality of graduates. In this light, Higher Learning Institutions (HLIs) and other agencies have taken heed to enhance students’ competencies through the implementation of graduate employability programmes (EP). This paper presents the finding of a study on the perceived impacts of graduate employability programmes on their work-related knowledge, skills, abilities, and other characteristics (KSAOs). A set of questionnaire was developed and distributed to a sample of participants who attended an EP. Based on the responses of the participants, the paper discusses among others, the different perceived competencies amongst participants. The findings could be used to guide the EP providers, trainers, and HLIs in reviewing and improving the existing EP
