“…The theme interaction (9.8%, n=15) itself was seen as an important aspect of blended learning; indeed Castaño-Muñoz, Duart and Sancho-Vinuesa (2014) claim that it is the key to success. Blended learning can bring students and externals together to provide richer learning experiences, through for example: simulations of an international workplace (Schech, Kelton, Carati, & Kingsmill, 2017) and engagement with small businesses (Thatcher, Alao, Brown, & Choudhary, 2016).…”

“…This widens their horizons in terms of work locations (e.g. Wiers-Jenssen, 2007;Pool & Sewell, 2007;Crossman & Clarke, 2010;Root & Ngampornchai, 2012) and helps to raise their employability by gaining experience of working collaboratively with people not in their immediate academic cultural group (Williams, 2005;Schech et al, 2017).…”

This paper explores the use of relatively small-scale, virtual, classroom-level interactions that have developed into a sustained partnership between two institutions on two sides of the Atlantic. These interactions have benefitted the student bodies and faculty members as well as addressing institutional strategic agendas (e.g. internationalization). This partnership goes beyond the common exchange program paradigm: it impacts upon the academic and transferable skill sets of the entire student body rather than just exchange students. We provide examples of these collaborative activities and discuss their particular benefits to the student bodies. Whilst the two programs share similar pedagogies and degree content, which has helped these interactions, we aim to show how individual faculty members can initiate and mediate sustainable inter-program interactions between any Higher Education providers with sustainable effort.Keywords: Undergraduate education, institutional cooperation, exchange, international collaboration, innovative pedagogies, experiential learning

“…This study also stresses the need for improved collaboration and networking between local and international industry and Malaysian higher education institutions. Schech et al (2017) called for further studies in order to examine the relation between the factors of internationalization and globalization and employability, because the links of those variables in the Malaysian universities are not very well known. Some authors emphasized the need for a literature review on the issues of employability to bring clarity in this specific research area (Andrews & Russell, 2012;Succi, 2019;Suleman, 2018).…”

“…This renders it essential that we understand and use multiple languages, explore different cultures and work with diverse workgroups (Fletcher et al, 2017;Ramadi et al, 2015). Technological changes continue to require workers to learn recent software and mechanisms and strive for a lifelong learning stance (Greenwood et al, 2015;Osmani et al, 2019;Schech et al, 2017;Yang et al, 2015). The acquisition, practice, and use of employees ' skills (such as teamwork abilities, creative and problem-solving and critical-thinking) have therefore become essential for survival and workplace success.…”
