Abstract: We draw a picture of employers’ claims about skills needs and of the looked-for organisational-level behaviours they perceive these skills as serving. We then apply the same framework to draw a picture of social sciences and humanities attempts to articulate how these skills and know-how are fostered in their programs, and we assess the alignment between perceptions of “needs” and “proposition”.
