Applied Research
IFC and Universidad Continental (UC) understand higher education institutions have the power to impact students, graduates, and their families. By supporting each stage of the student journey, from applied research and industry advisory to career services, UC strives to make dreams come true for their graduates.
With the support and tools that the Vitae program provided, UC achieved a 12% increase in student satisfaction with employability services in just one year. These improvements allow UC to support more students like Maria, who is working to transform her community through applied research in civil engineering.
Ultimately, Vitae’s 360° Assessment helped UC improve their employability strategy, and transform their programs to meet the needs of over 50,000 students.
“With the support and tools that the Vitae program has provided, we are convinced that Continental University is on the right path to improve employability. Ultimately, the impact is for our students, our graduates, and their families.”
