environmental scan provides a systematic overview of the external factors that are important to the organisation (or sector) and indicates whether the organisation can influence them or not. In general the factors are classified in factors influencing the demand/need for services (and products), the supply of inputs to the project/organisation concerned, the competition and collaboration and general policy factors. The factors are also classified with respect to the positive (+) or negative

Abstract The main objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of graduates’ characteristics on the chance of being employed. A total of 3,025 Malaysian graduates involved in the study and data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. The results show that the employment prospects of graduates with a good command of English and who possess leadership and technical skills are better when compared to those without these skills. These findings suggest that steps should be taken

maintenance and inspection deficiencies ranked fourth (12%) as a factor in aviation accidents overall. Other studies have described that as technology has improved, aviation accidents attributed to mechanical failures alone have decreased, yet those attributed to human error have not shown the same reduction (Wiegmann & Shappell, 2003). Aircraft maintenance requires high reliability and is an important concern in the human factors realm for several reasons. On the one hand, automation, which has

Factoring The greatest common factor of two numbers (x and y) is defined as the largest factor that can be evenly divided into each number (x and y). Example 1: Find the GCF of the numbers 20 and 50. Solution: The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20. Because 1 x 20 = 20; 2 x 10 = 20; 4 x 5 = 20 The factors of 50 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50. Because 1 x 50 = 50; 2 x 25 = 50; 5 x 10 = 50 Therefore, 10 is the largest factor that is common to both 20 and
