Career Services Your Students Deserve, Built for the Budget You Have
Community colleges serve the most diverse student population in higher ed with the smallest career services budgets in higher ed. Part-time students, working adults, career changers, transfer-bound freshmen. Prentus gives your tiny team an AI multiplier so every one of them gets real career support, whether they walk through your door or not.

The Challenge
More students than a mid-size university, a fraction of the staff
Over 60% of your students attend part-time. They work during the day, take classes at night, and never set foot in your career center. Your office hours don't match their lives, your career fairs happen when they're at work, and your two-person team is underwater. The students who need you most are the ones you never see.
Employer relationships are fragmented across departments. Nursing has its clinical partners, the welding program has manufacturing contacts, and the business department has internship connections. Nobody has the full picture. And when someone leaves, those relationships leave too. Meanwhile, accreditors and state legislators keep asking for outcome data you don't have.

Common questions from community college leaders
How does AI advising work for community college students?
The AI career advisor is available 24/7 and handles resume reviews, job search guidance, interview prep, and career exploration. It understands each student’s program, goals, and timeline — whether they’re transferring, entering the workforce, or both. Your staff sets the guardrails and reviews escalated conversations.
Can Prentus track outcomes for Perkins V reporting?
Yes. Prentus tracks placements, continuing education, and credential attainment across all student paths. You can filter by program, cohort, and student type to generate the reports your accreditors and funders need.
Does this work for part-time and evening students?
That’s exactly who it’s built for. The AI advisor is available around the clock, so students working full-time jobs or attending evening classes get the same quality of career support as anyone who can walk into your office during business hours.
How do you handle students on different paths — transfer vs. workforce vs. dual-enrollment?
Prentus supports all of them in a single platform. Each student gets personalized guidance based on their goals, and your team can track outcomes across every path without maintaining separate systems or spreadsheets.
What does implementation look like for a community college?
Most community colleges are fully live within 2–3 weeks. We handle data migration, train your team, and configure the AI advisor with your programs, local employers, and institutional policies. No IT department required.
