Abstract

Graduate employability remains a key indicator of the effectiveness of higher education programs in preparing students for the workforce. This study assessed the employability of Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEEd) graduates of Christ the King College of Calbayog City, Inc. from 2018 to 2022. Using a descriptive-correlational design, data were gathered through an adapted questionnaire administered online to determine graduates’ profiles, employment status, and skill development. Results revealed that most graduates were female, single, and within the prime working age, with the majority passing the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET). Employment was generally obtained within one year after graduation, often in temporary or contractual positions as teachers or administrative staff. Graduates displayed strong interpersonal and communication skills but showed areas for improvement in planning, problem-solving, and technological competencies. Statistical results indicated no significant influence of age, civil status, or eligibility on employability, while sex and educational attainment showed minor variations. A highly significant positive correlation was found between skills development and employability, confirming that greater professional competence enhances employment outcomes. The study concludes that BEEd graduates are highly employable and possess the essential competencies demanded by the education sector. Continuous curriculum enhancement and intervention programs are recommended to further strengthen graduates’ career readiness and employment prospects.
