Graduate Tracer studies constitute an important tool for educational
planners, as they can provide valuable information for evaluating
the results of the higher education and training institutions. This
information may be used for minimising any possible deficits in a
given educational programme in terms of content, delivery and
relevance and for further development of the institution in the
context of quality assurance.
The main objectives of the study were to trace the destination of
the graduates since they left university with a view to establish
among others their current activity, utilisation of skills, the level of
employment, unemployment and underemployment, labour
mobility and job satisfaction. The survey also aimed to assess the
contribution of the university training to graduates personal
development as well as the quality of the programmes of study in
terms of content, delivery and relevance to the world of work.
