This research started from the premise that (a) employability is an internationally accepted concept with a confusion of interpretations and definitions; and (b) that an insight into the variation in understanding of employability and teaching employability would benefit geography curriculum development. Consequently, the views of the co-authors from Italy, the United Kingdom, United States, Chile, Estonia, Greece and Spain were sought to develop an international understanding of employability and its position in the geography higher education curriculum. Discussion shows that the definitions and implications are varied. There is common agreement that geography graduates are very employable, and that their degree work enhances their employability attributes. The extent to which employability can be enhanced within the curriculum is discussed. (Contains 1 note.)
