Graduates move, change contact information, and have little incentive to respond to surveys. Traditional tracking relies on self-reported data from a fraction of graduates, creating an incomplete and potentially biased picture of employment outcomes.
How does Prentus track graduate outcomes automatically?
Prentus runs an automatic monthly LinkedIn scan plus dozens of AI-reviewed third-party sources to verify employment status, employer, job title, and industry.

How does better tracking help our institution?
Accurate outcome data strengthens accreditation reviews, supports marketing claims, informs program development decisions, and meets regulatory reporting requirements. Institutions with better data make better decisions and tell a more compelling story.
