Key capabilities required for podiatry graduates: A Delphi consensus study
Consensus among employers of podiatry graduates was established on the key capabilities required for podiatry graduates. Sixty-one items were identified across seven domains, and of these, 39 items were rated as 'essential'. The findings of this study have the potential to inform the creation of a podiatry-specific graduate employer work-readiness tool to provide feedback to podiatry education program providers and new graduates in the workplace.
