Abstract

Based on the findings of this tracer study, it can be concluded that graduates of the College of Arts and Sciences at Notre Dame of Midsayap College from Batch 2018–2023 generally demonstrate favorable employability and career outcomes. A majority of the graduates successfully transitioned into the workforce within a reasonable period, with most securing employment related to their academic programs and reporting that their college-acquired skills were relevant to their professional roles. Additionally, most graduates perceived themselves as moderately to very successful in their careers, indicating positive professional integration and development. However, the presence of unemployment, underemployment, and degree–job mismatch among a portion of the graduates suggests the need for continued efforts to enhance curriculum alignment, strengthen career preparation, and expand employment support services. Overall, the findings highlight the importance of tracer studies in providing evidence-based insights to guide institutional planning, curriculum improvement, and initiatives to enhance graduate employability and career success.
