Employability Skills Bootcamp

Ensure your learners have the skills they need to be work-ready

CMI’s latest research, Work-Ready Graduates: Building Employability for a Hybrid World, highlights that nearly 80% of employers believe that current graduates do not arrive fully equipped with the skills they need to be work ready.

The Employability Skills Bootcamp focuses on developing the core employability skills, as identified by employers, enabling you to equip your learners with key tools and resources, and an additional digital certificate and digital badge to make them a candidate of choice in the job market.

    Through self-assessment diagnostics and e-learning modules, learners develop their core skills with tailored resources and tools to support their studies.

    Throughout the programme, learners have the opportunity to retake their self-assessment diagnostic and see just how far they have come. All learners receive a digital certificate and badge from CMI to showcase their achievements to future employers.
