This meeting will aim to address some of the key factors
in aligning graduate aspirations with employer needs. There will be a panel of about six people with representatives from the following groups:

-YES (Young Earth Scientists) Network
-APECS (Association of Polar Early Career Scientists)
-Industry
-Academia
-Recent Graduate
-Current Student
-Other

We will be drawing on experience and knowledge gleaned from the YES Decision Point survey that has been running since late 2010. This meeting will not only identify aspirations and requirement but aims to improve graduate-industry communication via future actions identified during this meeting.

Organized by: YES Network and APECS Partnership
