Gill Frigerio has co-authored the report of a project funded by the Higher Education Academy which piloted the use of ‘Career Adapt-Ability’ in higher education career and employability services.

Career Adapt-Ability, developed by Professor Mark Savickas and colleagues, highlights four psycho-social competencies that individuals can develop to support them in handling transition in today’s labour market. Based on the premise that higher education prepares individuals for lifelong career development as well as initial transition, the project aimed to integrate the concept and its accompanying measurement instrument (The Career Adapt-abilities Inventory) into the career development and employability activities of six HE institutions.

Gill, who is Director of the Coaching programmes and Co-Director of Career Development and Coaching Studies programmes in the Centre also chaired the steering group on the project. Professor Jenny Bimrose Deputy Director of Warwick's Institue of Employment Research was also involved in the project and subsequential report.
