How academies align to RADAR

All Industry Graduates academies are designed using the RADAR methodology. This helps ensure development activity supports recruitment, attraction, development, analysis and retention in a way that is connected and purposeful.

RADAR provides the structure that links learning, application and recognition. This turns academy activity into clearer capability outcomes for both organisations and individuals.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Academies FAQs

These FAQs explain what Industry Graduates academies are, how the different models work and how academies support workforce capability, development and progression across different audiences.

What is an Industry Graduates Academy?

 An Industry Graduates Academy is a structured development environment designed to support workforce capability, progression and practical skill development. It brings learning, application and recognition together in a way that aligns with workforce and career outcomes. 

Can an academy be tailored to our organisation?

Yes. Academies can be designed around an organisation’s workforce needs, capability priorities, audience and desired outcomes. This means the model can reflect your brand, your context and the kind of development experience you want to create. 

Do academies have to follow the RADAR methodology?

RADAR provides the structure behind how Industry Graduates approaches capability, development and progression. It helps create consistency and clarity, but the academy itself can still be shaped around the employer’s goals, workforce needs and preferred model. 

Can we build an academy without starting from scratch?

Yes. Some employers want a fully tailored academy, while others prefer to work from an existing model and adapt it to suit their needs. Industry Graduates can support both approaches depending on the level of customisation required.

What can be included in an academy?

An academy can be designed around different employer workforce needs and outcomes. Depending on the model, it may include structured pathways, microcredentials, leadership development, onboarding support, recognition, facilitation, platform delivery and reporting, all brought together to support capability over time.

Who are academies designed for?

Academies can be designed for employers, industry groups or individuals depending on the model. Some academies support internal workforce development and progression, while others are used to strengthen entry pathways, capability building or broader industry led development.
