This textbook is designed for university students in business, management, economics, and
tourism. It focuses on building academic writing and study skills from the ground up and then
integrating professional competencies relevant to those fields. The chapters progress logically
from fundamental skills such as time management and effective study habits to more advanced
topics like academic writing, critical thinking, and professional development. This approach
mirrors proven learning strategies that emphasise core skills (time management, reading, writing,
teamwork) underpinned by independent learning and linked to real-world employability.
Each chapter includes practical components that let students apply the skills in real scenarios.
Readers will find a variety of exercises, case studies, reflection prompts, and discussion activities
that reinforce learning and encourage active participation. For example, one successful study-skills
guide is described as “packed with activities” and reflective tasks that help students engage with
material in business and tourism programmes.
In the same spirit, the chapters feature hands-on tasks and opportunities for self-assessment,
ensuring that readers not only understand the concepts but also practise them for academic and
professional growth.
Academic Skills and Professional Competence is a hands-on, instructor-ready resource designed
to prepare undergraduates for academic assessment and entry-level professional roles. Drawing on
classroom experience, applied research, and community projects, the book emphasises active
learning: short theory sections are immediately followed by exercises, case studies, and templates
that instructors can drop into tutorials or workshops.
