Abstract

This paper discusses the work-integrated learning (WIL) program of a fully foreign owned and operated university in Vietnam (FUV). It explores the elements of reflection, coaching and mentoring that are implemented to help students ease the transition from higher education into graduate-level jobs. The paper examines the above elements in their review of the extant literature and hypothesizes that they positively contribute to the transition process. This exploratory study suggests that the elements of the WIL program support interns in feeling more comfortable in their first real job, and more adaptable to new work environments.
