Employability can be seen as the capability of getting and keeping satisfactory work. It can be said to be a set of achievements, understandings and personal attributes that make individuals more likely to gain employment and to be successful in their chosen occupations. Employability skills on the other hand are the skills and capabilities that make graduates more likely to gain employment and be successful in their chosen occupations as they navigate their way through a dynamic labour market (Wels, 2013). Wels stressed that to be competitive; one has to demonstrate to employers that he/she has the discipline-specific technical skills they require, as well as the broader range of employability skills.Confederation of British Industries (2008) explained employability skills as a set of attributes, skills and knowledge that all labour market participants should possess to ensure they have the capability of being effective in the workplace in order to benefit them, their employer and the wider economy. These skills are also referred to as transferable skills (because skills developed in one area of one’s life can be transferred to other areas) or personal skills. In the context of one’s career planning and development, they are called career management skills.
