The LJMU graduate labour market – where do LJMU students go and what do they do?

Abstract

Join Dr Charlie Ball, the labour market specialist at the UK’s higher education service provider Jisc as he takes you through LJMU’s labour market analysis. The session is key for anyone involved in or with an interest in student and graduate employability and graduate outcomes.

Charlie takes a deep dive (in 20 minutes!) into the labour market for John Moores graduates covering where John Moores graduates go after their degree and what they go on to do next. He will present findings and recommendations from a report commissioned as part of TEF research highlighting strengths and opportunities at LJMU alongside recommendations for future action. Along the way he’ll also bust some typical graduate labour market myths!

Following the session the Student Futures team will be in the SLB Careers Zone to answer any questions on LJMU Graduate Outcomes survey data and talk through programme reports accessible through web hub.
