Common themes that emerged from the research were that the technical skills required of graduates were essentially basic accounting skills. Important non-technical skills recognised were communication, problem solving, teamwork, and self-management. The project identified and described 18 current teaching strategies for developing non-technical skills, the learning and teaching rationale underpinning each one, assessment methods, and available evidence about its success.
