Higher degree by research (HDR) graduates are often perceived to be overly specialised and are unable to adapt to non-academic settings (Jaeger and Rudra, 2013). Universities are under increasing pressure to embed research and transferrable skills into the candidature in a flexible and meaningful way to equip graduates with the skills to succeed in a range of careers. The paper aims to study how Flinders University has embedded the Research and Employability Skills Training (REST) Program into the HDR.,REST was established to replace the workshop-based professional development program, with a structured, compulsory, comprehensive program for HDR students, based on the Vitae Researcher Development Framework (RDF). The Program aims to provide students with the research skills they need to complete their studies and the transferrable skills employers seek, through an online, supported program that helps them identify their needs, plan and control their skills development. Such a comprehensive online candidature management system has enabled Flinders to implement the RDF and successfully and comprehensively embed REST into the HDR candidature, assisting students to articulate and demonstrate their skills with documented evidence.,The Program has been running for one year, and so far, has been successful. Students are increasingly completing the initial online Skills Needs Analysis assessment component, which helps to identify their skills gaps and recommend workshops to meet their needs. Supervisors and students are engaging with the Program through structured discussion and refection of skills at each annual milestone, thanks to the help of the Inspire online candidature management system.,REST is a valuable resource for HDR students, providing them with a range of skills to progress with their research, writing and professional development training that complements, but is separate from, their degree. Providing a structured training program which follows and supports students’ candidature, and is based around the training needs and career trajectories of the student assists the students be more equipped and supported to complete on time and are well prepared for a range of career outcomes.

通过研究候选人资格将可转让技能嵌入更高的层次

研究(HDR)学位较高的毕业生通常被认为过于专业化,无法适应非学术环境(Jaeger和Rudra,2013)。大学承受着越来越大的压力,需要以一种灵活而有意义的方式将研究和可转让技能纳入候选人,以使毕业生具备在各种职业中取得成功的技能。本文旨在研究弗林德斯大学如何将研究和就业技能培训(REST)计划嵌入到HDR中。REST的建立是为了针对HDR学生的结构化,强制性,全面计划,取代了基于研讨会的专业发展计划,基于Vitae研究人员开发框架(RDF)。该计划旨在通过在线支持的计划为学生提供完成学业所需的研究技能以及雇主寻求的可转让技能,该计划可帮助他们确定需求,计划和控制技能发展。如此全面的在线候选资格管理系统使Flinders能够实施RDF,并将REST成功,全面地嵌入到HDR候选资格中,从而帮助学生用有据可依的证据明确表达和展示自己的技能。该计划已经运行了一年,到目前为止, ,已成功。学生越来越多地完成最初的在线技能需求分析评估组件,该组件有助于确定他们的技能差距并推荐满足他们需求的研讨会。得益于Inspire在线候选资格管理系统的帮助,督导员和学生通过每个年度里程碑的结构化讨论和技巧交流,来参与该计划。REST是HDR学生的宝贵资源,可为他们提供一系列技能,他们的研究,写作和专业发展培训取得了进步,这与他们的学位形成了互补,但又相互独立。根据培训需求和学生的职业发展轨迹,提供结构化的培训计划,该计划遵循并支持学生的候选人资格,从而帮助学生更有能力和得到支持,以按时完成,并为一系列职业目标做好充分的准备。REST是HDR学生的宝贵资源,它为他们提供了一系列的技能,以促进他们的研究,写作和专业发展培训,这是对他们的学位的补充,但又与他们分开。根据培训需求和学生的职业发展轨迹,提供结构化的培训计划,该计划遵循并支持学生的候选人资格,从而帮助学生更有能力和得到支持,以按时完成,并为一系列职业目标做好充分的准备。REST是HDR学生的宝贵资源,它为他们提供了一系列的技能,以促进他们的研究,写作和专业发展培训,这是对他们的学位的补充,但又与他们分开。根据培训需求和学生的职业发展轨迹,提供结构化的培训计划,该计划遵循并支持学生的候选人资格,从而帮助学生更有能力和得到支持,以按时完成,并为一系列职业目标做好充分的准备。
