Employability skills are increasingly important to prospective employers who are looking for applicants with something more to offer than just subject knowledge.
Our course modules provide learners with the majority of the core transferable employability skills recommended for progression to a successful career. To provide a consistent approach across our schools and to communicate the importance of these skills more effectively, we have developed the Cranfield Competency Framework. This allows our learners to identify and reflect on those that they have acquired, or those that need further development. Competencies are clustered under four different groupings: Communications and Relationships, Personal Attributes, Leadership and Business, each of which expand to sub-levels. Find out more by opening each drop-down menu below.
Cranfield Competency Framework
The Cranfield Competency Framework (CCF) is a cross industry benchmark for the application of knowledge and skills in a global economy, designed to meet the latest challenges in both private and public sector organisations. The CCF helps students understand how their programme of study relates to the professional competencies required for industry, supporting their personal development journey.
Students learn how to develop and articulate their employability skills, together with setting specific, measurable, achievable goals. They will be encouraged to reflect on communication, relationships and personal attributes and develop the business and leadership skills necessary to succeed.
