The Employability Skills Framework is widely acknowledged as evidencing what employers need in the workforce. Consultation on this project reinforced the framework as articulating what is important to employers from organisations of all sizes, industries and locations. Although it describes clearly what skills employers want, the Employability Skills Framework is also consistent with university educational objectives. In the time since Employability skills for the future was released, and the Employability Skills Framework implemented in the VET sector, employers have continued to emphasise both the importance of and need for employees and graduates who possess the required mix of these skills (Ai Group 2006 in ACCI 2007).
