Embedding graduate skills into a first year management course: Theory, practice and reflection

This paper explores both the theory and practice of embedding graduate skills within Griffith Business School Curricula. We reflect on our experience in running a pilot in Management Concepts: a first year course designated as a site for embedding particular skills. We use our experience in this context to illustrate and support our argument that teaching practice and evaluation are as important as research in developing a scholarly approach to graduate skills development.
