Support the development of employability

enhance employment opportunities
and raise awareness of the attributes
required to succeed in the financial
services and accountancy sector.
FLSP E-Mentoring Scheme: Overview
Features
• 28 participants, 10 private and public sector organisations nationwide
• Partners: MU, FLSP
• Mentees attend a 3 hour induction and training workshop
• Mentors attend an online training workshop
• Blended mentoring relationships
• Eight online modules: 4 employability, 4 sector specific knowledge
• Baseline, interim and summative evaluation
FLSP E-Mentoring Scheme: Results
Employability and sector knowledge
The data from both mentees and mentors suggests that the model is an ‘ideal’ fit for first year undergraduate students. The general consensus is that undergraduate students need to think about their employability from the time of entering Higher Education.
