With increasing pressure on graduate employment, I feel that professional educators play an important role in getting their students as resilient as possible before they seek to enter the workplace. It is essential from the outset of their academic experience to show students the importance of behaving professionally and with integrity by going back to first principles and formally stating what will be expected of them in all Student Handbooks. This goes beyond statements about plagerism. In addition, students should become used to getting constructive feedback on their performance and be able to respond to this positively. They should also be able to learn by observing other people and build on their own self-awareness. And finally, they should be taught to become comfortable with managing uncertainty.
