Introduction
Employability skills are critical within the academic life of a student as this enables
them to have higher abilities along with knowledge in future perspectives. Employability

student to deliver their liabilities in their academic. This will allow them within development

report, two models will be used i.e. Kolb’s’ learning style and Gibbs reflective model.
Moreover, it will also provide an overview of skills that are developed while working or
studying.
Task 2
Main Body
Employability skills aid students within their career through which they can have
