National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Competencies
There are eight career readiness competencies, each of which can be demonstrated in a variety of ways. Career readiness is a foundation from which to demonstrate requisite core competencies that broadly prepare the college educated for success in the workplace and lifelong career management.
By integrating the language of these competencies into assignments, discussions, and feedback, you enable students to identify their strengths and effectively communicate them to employers, graduate programs, and other future opportunities.
