Abstract

A tracer study stands as an indispensable tool for assessing the efficacy and success of the programs or courses offered by a school. This comprehensive analysis documents various aspects such as the employment status, challenges faced, and the practical application of skills among graduates in their current employment. By tracking the trajectories of alumni, tracer studies provide valuable insights into the real-world impact of the education provided by the institution. The Tracer Study tracked the SBA graduates of Pilgrim Christian College on what activities they followed after graduation and recognized the results of their achievements. The study used a descriptive method of research and used surveys to gather the primary data. Findings revealed that SBA graduates are predominantly females and in their early twenties; more were single, majority BSA graduates; and that they enrolled at PCC because of affordable tuition fees and the personal prestige attached to the name for better employment and career advancement. More of them were working at private institutions, the majority were serving full-time, more of them were working in business institutions, few were unemployed due to advancement for further studies, and more of them were permanent employees. The study concluded that a great number of them were employed immediately after graduation by application and not by political connections. Having provided very adequately the skills such as knowledge, communication, human relations, leadership, research, problem solving, and other competencies specific to the area of specialization were major factors on top of the area of specialization and reputation of SBA considered for immediate job acquisition.
