This is great Carey. Are you keeping track of the exact numbers of enrollments, retention, and placement? It's always effective when you have great stats behind what you say. It helps when asking for an increase in your budget! We think it is essential to keep in touch with grads. In fact, many schools are putting in Alumni Associations and inducting grads right on graduation day. When you stay in touch with alumni you have new sources of referrals, help in the classroom and with career services, and you can ask them about job openings where they work. Thanks, Susan
