C 4.4-9 Skills statements and their role in doctoral education: the Irish experience
   
Name C 4.4-9 Skills statements and their role in doctoral education: the Irish experience
Description Author: Westley Forsythe

This article examines the use of skills statements and their role in the development of doctoral education, with a particular focus on the recent experience in Ireland. After outlining the links to European and national policies through the Bologna process and the development of the European Research Area, the article highlights the main features and purposes of a skills statement, notably the importance of communicating to wider stakeholders the main learning outcomes of the doctoral experience. The article looks at the process by which a PhD graduates’ skills statement was prepared in Ireland, and discusses both how this can and should not be used in the ongoing expansion of doctoral education.
