The QA Commons is mindful of the dramatic and transformational impact COVID-19 is having on all institutions of higher education. As an organization, we are adapting our services to support preparing graduates for the workplace that is now changing more precipitously than ever.
QA Commons’ core offerings are centered on its Employability Framework, consisting of the eight EEQs and five standards of care. Additionally, QA Commons brings its expertise to existing projects, adapting strategy and design in order to achieve goals related to learners’ ability to succeed in a meaningful career.
The Employability Exploration engages instructors, advisors, and staff in the topic of employability and identifies both strengths and gaps in delivering employability skills and preparing learners for the evolving world of work.
The Exploration is quick, easy, inexpensive, and powerful.
QA Commons delivers a set of individualized technical assistance tools, such as workshops, academies, and individualized coaching focused on embedding Essential Employability Qualities (EEQs) into curricula, effectively engaging employers, and integrating the Employability Framework’s five standards of care.
QA Commons awards EEQ Certification (EEQ CERT) as an indicator of full Employability Framework adoption. It is the hallmark of quality in delivering education and training programs aligned to employability.
QA Commons assesses an organization’s current performance in delivering employability and career readiness services to determine gaps and prioritize needs and provides customized employability solutions and assistance around any of QA Commons’ Employability Standards, such as employer engagement and career support.
