BBA Undergraduate Competencies (Review)
Why are UGC important?
The Future of Jobs: 2025 Outlook
Technology impact on job types
85 million jobs displaced/replaced by Artificial Intelligence
97 million new/replacement jobs will emerge that required adaptation
40% of core job skills will change
50% of all employees will need training on skills that don’t exist yet
These competencies are more important than the technical skills

Using this 6 step model should help to identify your strengths, areas for development and actions you can take to enhance your professional skills – specifically your Undergraduate Competency.
Steps 1 – 3 relate to what happened during the experience (your project)
Steps 4 – 6 focus on how you could improve on the experience and outcome in the future.

Gibbs Reflective Learning Cycle
One of the most famous cyclical models of reflection leading you through six stages exploring an experience: description, feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion and action plan.
Gibbs' Reflective Cycle was developed by Graham Gibbs in 1988 to give structure to learning from experiences. It offers a framework for examining experiences, and given its cyclic nature lends itself particularly well to repeated experiences, allowing you to learn and plan from things that either went well or didn’t go well. It covers 6 stages:
Description of the experience
Feelings and thoughts about the experience
Evaluation of the experience, both good and bad
Analysis to make sense of the situation
Conclusion about what you learned and what you could have done differently
Action plan for how you would deal with similar situations in the future, or general changes you might find appropriate.
This model is a good way to work through an experience. This can be either a stand-alone experience or a situation you go through frequently, for example meetings with a team you have to collaborate with. Gibbs originally advocated its use in repeated situations, but the stages and principles apply equally well for single experiences too. If done with a stand-alone experience, the action plan may become more general and look at how you can apply your conclusions in the future.
