Abstract
This study rigorously analyzes the attributes of technical-vocational graduates in the Maasim, Sarangani Province, emphasizing their skills, curriculum completion, employability, and correlation with college course enrollment. The study employed a purposive sampling method to survey 119 participants from three senior high schools. A descriptive-correlational study methodology was utilized to evaluate the correlations between the graduates' profiles and the important factors. The results indicated no substantial association among competency, employability, the finished track, and the students' current college courses. The National Career Assessment Examination (NCAE) demonstrated a substantial correlation with the alignment of students' selected college courses. This indicates that the choice of senior high school tracks ought to be based on the outcomes of the NCAE, the High School Occupational Inventory of Interest, and the National Career Achievement Examination. The research reveals that students selecting pathways closely matched with their prospective college courses, especially the General Academic Strand and Humanities and Social Sciences, are more favorably positioned for future professional success. This highlights the necessity for a comprehensive and data-informed methodology in the selection of senior high school tracks, guaranteeing congruence with students' academic and occupational objectives. The study emphasizes the shortcomings of providing educational courses simply based on the geographic location of schools, indicating that programs in remote locations, such as agriculture and technical-vocational education, may insufficiently equip students for higher education. This misalignment can pose difficulties for students transitioning to more demanding academic programs, highlighting the necessity of a curriculum that facilitates both short-term and long-term academic and career goals.
