Job Readiness & Career Success
- The IIE and the Stanley Foundation (1996) addressed the future of global competency for community college students, community, and institutional stakeholders and identified 58 global competencies. “To ensure the survival and well-being of our communities, it is imperative that community colleges develop a globally and multiculturally competent citizenry” (Stanley Foundation, 1996, p. 3).
- Global competency skills are increasingly in demand by employers and should be considered readiness factors for the global job market (U.S. Department of State, 2016).
- Holding a sense of belonging to a global community is one of the core aspects of global citizenship education that adds value in the global job market, according to employers (UNESCO, 2014).
