Gill Frigerio, University of Warwick Dr Toni Wright, Newman University Annual Conference 2014

Career Adaptability is about helping students to equip themselves to manage the challenges of life and work in a changing labour market - considering their personal capacities of concern, control, curiosity and confidence. The workshop reports on a collaborative project to pilot the use of the associated Career Adapt-Abilities Inventory (CAAI) in a variety of different HE contexts e.g. online, targeted cohorts, work placement module and student awards. Hear our story of uniting a varied group of practitioners to trial the use of career adaptability and the CAAI to support students, identify need, allocate resources and consider a step change in approaching employability across a university.

The capability of an individual to make a series of successful transitions where the labour market, organisation of work and underlying occupational and organisational knowledge bases may be subject to considerable change’ (Bimrose et al, 2011)

Adaptive Readiness (personality traits) Adaptability Resources (psycho-social competencies – can be developed) Adapting (action when required ) Adaptation as outcome Ready, willing & able

CONCERN: developing a positive optimistic attitude to the future CONTROL: exerting a degree of intra- personal influence on their situations CURIOSITY: broadening horizons by exploring social opportunities & possibilities CONFIDENCE: believing in yourself & ability to achieve your goal

Adaptability dimension Attitudes and beliefs Competence Coping behaviours Career ‘problem’ ConcernPlanfulPlanning Aware Involved Preparing Indifference ControlDecisive Decision making Assertive Disciplined Willful Indecision CuriosityInquisitiveExploring Experimenting Risk taking Inquiring Unrealism ConfidenceEfficaciousProblem solving Persistent Striving Industrious Inhibition Career Adaptability Dimensions (Savickas, 2013: 158)

International life design group met in 2008 and 2010; 13 countries (not inc. UK) involved in study to develop and validate the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale from the four competency factors (CAAS). (Savickas & Porfeli, 2012) In the UK Bimrose and colleagues developed qualitative descriptors. (Bimrose et al, 2011) Birmingham, Warwick, Newman and HECSU, with help from GCU - UK collaborative project validated a UK version of the questionnaire: CAAI-UK

Different people use different strengths to build their careers. No one is good at everything, each of us emphasises some strengths more than others. Please rate how strongly you have developed each of the following abilities using the scale below. Strongest Very strong Strong Somewhat strong Not strong (5) (4) (3) (2) (1) Becoming aware of the education and career choices that I must make Actively engaging with my career Remaining positive Taking responsibility for my actions Acting in line with my values and principles Relying on myself Looking for opportunities to grow as a person Observing different ways of doing things Adapted from Savickas & Porfeli (2012)

 From maturity to adaptability  Consistent with professional values  Relational (psycho-social) component  Recursiveness and reflexivity  Relevant at time of transition

Development tool Value- added measure for interventions Benchmarking Resource allocation/ prioritization Other?

To explore how the CAAI-UK might be used in different contexts & settings DMU, Newman, Warwick, HECSU, Birmingham, Glasgow Caledonian Focus on placements, online tools, mature learners, embedding in career education, vehicle for institutional change

Guidance notes for feedback sessions have been developed Text using scores as a basis for signposting has been developed Success and risk factors identified at both institutional and practitioner level Career Adaptability provides a framework for discussion of both institutional level and individual level drivers and needs at the same time Possibilities for the future: use in induction, personal tutoring, post placement reflective tool, diagnostics

Factors which supported the pilots: e.g. tutor buy in, staff time and commitment Factors which inhibited the pilots: e.g. resources, staff change, practitioner comfort levels, limited time to engage students and student understanding of relevance

More support for practitioners in working with the concepts A website to gather case studies and support one another Possible use with personal tutors Ongoing piloting of online version
