The concept of employability and its main definitions constitute the framework of this paper, according to which its influence on higher education policies and practices is considered. In the context of knowledge economies and high-skilled labour demands, employability acts as an educational process that supports the transition from university to work. In this regard, the study directly addresses adult education studies, their impact on career pathways and resourcefulness in the development of a life plan.Based on this framework, the paper illustrates a comparative analysis of employability policies that influence higher education strategies in in Italy, Nigeria and Palestine. 2022 artículo científico 2182-8474 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=575772879005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5757/575772879005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5757/575772879005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5757/575772879005/575772879005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5757/575772879005/movil 10.25749/sis.25573 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5757 Sisyphus — Journal of Education application/pdf Universidade de Lisboa Sisyphus — Journal of Education (Portugal) Num.2 Vol.10 |
