The Problem
Students log in once. Alumni disappear. Your career portal is a ghost town.
Most career portals have single-digit login rates. Students come in for orientation, grab a resume template, and never return. There's no reason to come back. No community. No peer-to-peer engagement. Just a static page that nobody uses.
Alumni are even worse — they graduate and the connection is gone. No way to stay involved, share opportunities, or mentor current students. Years of relationship-building vanish overnight. According to NACE benchmarks, student engagement with career services is one of the strongest predictors of post-graduation outcomes. You need a platform with pull.
How It Works
From ghost town to daily habit
Advisors Create Spaces
Set up community feeds by career path, program, interest area, or custom tags. Control visibility and permissions so the right people see the right conversations.
People Interact and Share
Students, alumni, and job seekers post updates, share resources, reply to threads, and attend events. The community becomes peer-to-peer — not just top-down announcements.
Helpfulness Gets Rewarded
Every upvote, event attended, job shared, and resource contributed earns Career Points. Gamified helpfulness keeps people active and makes the community self-sustaining.
Community Feeds
A social feed your students actually check
Create segmented feeds by career path, program, cohort, or custom tags. Students see relevant conversations, not noise. Feeds are internal only — no employer partners, no outside eyes — so students ask honest questions and share real experiences. Need a support channel? Route it directly to advisors.
- Segmented filters gate feeds by program, cohort, tags, and more
- Internal only — employers can't see community conversations
- Support channels route student questions directly to advisors
Event Management
Stop chasing students to show up to events
Create one-time or recurring events, share external events, manage registrations, and control visibility — all in one place. Events show up directly on the student dashboard so they don't need another reminder email. Manage attendees, email them, track who showed up, and sync with Google or Microsoft to automatically create meeting links.
- Events appear on student dashboards with zero extra reminders
- Attendance tracking and attendee management in one view
- Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook sync for meeting links

Resource Library
One place for everything your students need to know
Upload documents, link external blogs, embed videos, or mark useful community posts as resources. Everything is auto-indexed and tagged so students find what they need without digging. Advisors can use resources as links when grading through the Advisor Suite — making this your team's central knowledge base.
- Documents, blogs, videos, and community posts in one library
- Auto-indexed and tagged so students can search and find fast
- Advisors link resources directly into grading and feedback
Alumni Engagement
Graduates who stay connected and give back
Students build the habit of using Prentus while they're enrolled. After graduation, they don't disappear — they share job opportunities, host events, connect with current students, and become mentors. Your alumni network becomes a living asset, not a spreadsheet nobody opens. Manage it all in the same place your current students already use.
- Alumni share jobs and events back to the community
- Current students connect with alumni for mentorship
- One platform for your entire network — no separate alumni tool
Static career portal vs. living community
Without Prentus
- Students log in once for orientation and never come back
- Alumni disappear after graduation with no way to stay connected
- Events scattered across email, Eventbrite, and Zoom with no tracking
- Career resources buried in Google Drive or an outdated LMS
- No peer-to-peer engagement or sense of community
With Prentus Community (Free)
- Social feeds, events, and resources give students reasons to come back daily
- Alumni stay connected and give back through jobs, events, and mentorship
- Full event management with registration, attendance, and calendar sync
- Central resource library auto-indexed and searchable by everyone
- Career Points gamify helpfulness and keep the community active
Community is free. Institutions using Prentus Community see daily logins instead of quarterly ones. When students have a reason to come back — feeds, events, resources, and peers — they engage. Add Job Search Tools and Advisor Suite to connect Career Points and engagement data across every module.
Common questions about Community
Is the Community module really free?
Yes. Community is a completely free module. You get social feeds, event management, a resource library, and a people directory at no cost. Book a demo and we’ll set it up for you — no strings attached.
How does Community help with alumni engagement?
Students build the habit of using Community while they’re enrolled. After graduation, alumni stay connected — sharing jobs, attending events, and mentoring current students. You manage the entire alumni network in the same place, turning graduates into lifelong contributors.
Can employers see the community feeds?
No. Community feeds are internal only — visible to students, alumni, and advisors. Employer partners do not have access to community conversations. This creates a safe, honest space for students to ask questions and share experiences.
Does Community integrate with Google and Microsoft calendars?
Yes. When you create events, Prentus syncs with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook to automatically generate meeting links and add events to attendee calendars. Students see upcoming events directly on their dashboard.
How do Career Points work in Community?
Every upvote on a post, event attended, job shared, and resource contributed earns Career Points. This gamifies helpfulness — people who give back to the community are recognized and rewarded. It creates a cycle where the more someone contributes, the more visible they become.
