Employability means a set of skills, knowledge, understanding, and personal attributes that make an individual more possible to choose and maintain occupations to be satisfied and successful. The low employability of pedagogy students becomes a concern in this study. This study aims to compare employability between pedagogy students in public universities and private universities. The research design used was quantitative non-experimental. A total of 133 public university pedagogy students and 104 private university pedagogy students participated. The data was obtained using two-stage cluster random sampling technique. Comparison of employability between pedagogy students in public universities and private universities was analyzed using Mann Whitney. The result showed there was a significant difference in employability between pedagogy students in public universities and private universities (p <0.05). Employability prediction based on dimensions sequentially were Generic Skills (91.8%), Career Development Learning (81.3%), Experience (67.3%), Degree Subject Knowledge, Understanding, and Skills (60.6%), and Emotional Intelligence (54%). Employability of pedagogy students in public universities was higher than private universities. This is due to differences in the university quality, namely Raw Input and University Accreditation.  Employability adalah seperangkat keterampilan, pengetahuan, pemahaman, dan atribut pribadi yang lebih memungkinkan seseorang untuk memilih dan mempertahankan pekerjaannya supaya merasa puas dan sukses.

Purpose Nationwide, upward trends exist in student issues with anxiety, stress, depression, and lowered classroom performance. As emotional awareness and emotional regulation skills are typically not addressed in professional discipline-specific courses, students experience challenges in their academic performance. This pilot research explored the effect of brief targeted classroom practices within an empowerment-based framework on domains of emotional intelligence. Method Twenty-two students in an undergraduate speech-language pathology class received a 13-week, biweekly, 15-min session of empowerment-based worksheet exercises to develop increased self-esteem, emotional awareness and regulation, and communication. Assessments of self-esteem, emotional intelligence, communication competence, and communication apprehension were conducted using validated scales, namely, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale ( Rosenberg, 1965 ), the Quick Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment ( Mohapel, 2015 ), the Self-Perceived Communication Competence Scale ( McCroskey & McCroskey, 2013 ), and the Personal Report of Communication Apprehension ( McCroskey, 1982 ), respectively. Midsemester and semester-end student reflections were collected. Results Paired t tests were significant in self-esteem and emotional quotient, including subdomains of emotional awareness, emotional management, social emotional awareness, and relational management. Significance was noted in communication competence in the subdomains of dyad interaction, stranger interaction, and acquaintance. Students' reflection showed significant improvement in empowerment and self-rated improvements in confidence, communication, connections with peers, and trust with instructor. Conclusion Preliminary evidence demonstrates positive outcomes with integration of intentional classroom exercises to build emotional intelligence (including emotional awareness and regulation), self-esteem, and communication. This empowerment model may assist faculty in developing effective pedagogical strategies to build students' self-resiliency.
