Transversal skills have gained increased attention due to rapid technological advances. As AI solutions emerge and new jobs arise from digital access and growing work-age populations (World Economic Forum, 2025), academics must reassess teaching methods and the skills needed in a changing workplace. Incorporating hard and soft skills in hospitality and tourism curricula is vital (Ezeuduji et al., 2023). However, research found that many faculty do not feel prepared to incorporate transversal skills in their teaching. This article presents an innovative approach with recommendations for integrating transversal skills through curriculum enhancement and teaching methods. The authors propose a three-step framework: 1) foundations alignment, 2) planning and capacity building, and 3) implementation and engagement. This research provides a practical approach for universities, faculty, students, and industry partners to cultivate future-ready graduates equipped with adaptability, critical thinking, and interpersonal competencies essential for success in a global workforce.
