All eyes on employability

News: Season of ELM podcasts!


At Expertise in Labour Mobility (ELM), it is the season of webcasts and podcasts. In what way do soft skills relate to one’s employability? How does employability work across cultures? And how did the pandemic impact the global world of work? These podcasts all are very different, yet they still go back to one topic: Employability. Nannette Ripmeester, director of ELM, was invited to various podcasts/webcasts to share and discuss her expertise about the global world of work. Please have a look at/listen in to the podcasts that ELM participated in this year.
