    About this ebook

    Further titles in the new Lifelong Learning: Personal Effectiveness Guides by Rosalie Marsh, which draw from her extensive skills & industrial experience in sales management, and work-based learning in adult and further education.
    It is a step in the personal and professional development journey where development of the whole person is at the heart of Marsh’s ethos.
    Many adults and young people are pre-employment, in employment and looking to enhance their careers or are between jobs. Many do not have the life skills and /or a basic understanding of what is required to become and stay employed and enhance their future. This book - one of a series - will provide essential information to fill the gaps identified through research and enhance the prospects of a successful interview.
    In two parts, Skills for Employability - designed to be read in bite-sized chunks - will focus on some of the skills you need in order to impress an employer, stand out from the rest, become employed, and enhance your future.

    Part One looks at the Pre-Employment skills needed.
    Part Two looks at what you need to know when you move into employment.

    Features of Skills for Employability Part One:
    Each chapter details the Learning Outcomes and relevance to other qualifications such as Functional Skills, Life Skills and Employability Skills and in particular SSA 14.1 Foundations for Learning and Life & 14.2 Preparation for Work, and Functional Skills; all of which are linked to the Qualification Credit Framework (QCF).
    At the end of each topic, there will be a series of short practical activities for self assessment for learners to see how far they have 'travelled' in gaining knowledge and understanding. In turn this will add to a sense of achievement.
    All content will relate to the current gaps in knowledge& understanding and softer skills for those who are pre-employment e.g.
    school leavers;
    16-18 year old unemployed;
    returners to work;
    learners with disabilities who are seeking a change of employment;
    in employment and seeking to enhance their prospects or between jobs.
    The book has some illustrations to enhance text and links to websites e.g. for legislation. This will provide more interaction and variety for the learner and ensure currency. Adult Literacy and Numeracy will not be addressed in this book as there are many excellent books available.
    Benefits:
    After completing Skills for Employability Part One, readers will:
    Have more awareness of the standards of behaviour and requirements of employers.
    Have completed short practical activities, which aim to test their understanding.
    Have raised their self-esteem and confidence.
    Have an awareness and understanding of the business environment.
    Have some basic knowledge and understanding, which could be presented for accreditation of prior learning for City & Guilds Awards/Certificates in Employability and Personal Development, vocational qualifications, or company training programmes.

    Author

    Rosalie Marsh

    Rosalie Marsh writes on a variety of topics from hilarious biographical travel adventures to more serious stuff based on personal development – which are light-hearted and user-friendly. Marsh says: “In the midst of pots and pans I often dreamed of writing as many story lines popped up in my head. My wide range of activities provided me with a rich seam of material.” As ‘born-again’ bikers on a Honda Gold Wing motorbike, Marsh and her husband found their lost youth travelling on their own –Just Us Two – in Europe, During their first Gold Wing experience, finding that the words flowed when recording their first profoundly emotional experiences in Ireland, Rosalie realised that there were the beginnings of a story. As the years passed, they extended their horizons, travelling over 50,000 miles on their own. Rosalie wrote about their amazing experience as feature articles, eventually concluding that together they formed an inspiring story of adventure and realisation of dreams. Later, this award-winning story developed into the ‘Just Us Two’ series of biographical travel adventures. Retiring to concentrate on her writing, Marsh drew on her skills and experiences in travel and adult education. From this, the series of Lifelong Learning Personal Effectiveness Guides developed – each a big workshop in a small package. Rosalie brings her twin passions of travel and achieving potential into her writing, which readers find 'exhilarating and inspirational'; 'a relaxing adventure not to be missed'; ‘she is a gifted author who can bring her travel books alive,’ that she is ‘a detailed and passionate professional’ whose ‘knowledge of work based learning and adult education is outstanding’, to name a few comments. Embracing digital solutions, all books are always available worldwide in print and e-book formats for most devices. Rosalie Marsh writes under a pen name.
