Further assessment of the employability-inventory in a sample of dual study graduates

Abstract

This study used confirmatory factor analyses and descriptive statistics on new data from 345 dual study graduates in Germany to further assess a newly developed and recently published self-report inventory of employability. The resulting 19-item inventory showed a good model fit and factorial validity, with small to medium interscale correlations. This provides a solid base for further research and a targeted tool for assessing dual study graduates’ employability. Limitations and future research scope are discussed.
