AlmaLaurea

ALMALAUREA

eCampus University is affiliated with the AlmaLaurea Interuniversity Consortium (www.almalaurea.it). Almalaurea collects data on almost 90% of the graduates who earn an academic qualification each year. AlmaLaurea annually conducts census surveys on the Profile and employment status of graduates 1, 3 and 5 years after obtaining their degree.

The objectives are the following:

collecting information and evaluations on the graduates' academic pathway and employment status on behalf of the affiliated universities. The resulting analysis and statistics will then be published with the aim of guiding recently graduated students in their choice of university and work and of directing the governing bodies of the universities in the planning of teaching and training activities;
publishing online the curriculum vitae (CV) of recently graduated students for companies, institutions and professionals looking for qualified experts. The AlmaLaurea database, available online, gets richer every year by about 200,000 CV, and is a unique tool of its kind for features, quality and timeliness.

Upon graduation, all the universities affiliated with AlmaLaurea, will ask their graduating students to provide the evaluations on their learning pathway (required by law) by answering a specific questionnaire.

Upon explicit consent, all graduating students can create and make available their CV in the AlmaLaurea database; the CV will be accessible to companies that will directly use the search and selection services provided by AlmaLaurea.

With their opinion the students will allow the realization of Surveys on the Profile and Occupational Status of graduates and contribute to improve the University System and guide those who are about to undertake an academic career.

Every year, the AlmaLaurea Consortium collects and analyzes he documentation and evaluations of all graduating students on the academic experience they have just completed, as well as interviews on the employment status of graduated students one, three and five years after graduation. The results, publicly available on the Consortium's website, are provided to the MMinistry of University and Research (MUR) and to the governing bodies ((Evaluation Boards, Quality Assurance Committees, etc.) of the affiliated universities. The results of the surveys are extremely useful for the purpose of guiding the planning of training activities and contribute to defining the distribution of ministerial funds to universities on the basis of appropriate indicators.

The AlmaLaurea System for businesses - the platform for intermediation

(service under construction)

The AlmaLaurea Consortium provides member universities with a set of online services for intermediation between the university and the labor market. The system manages the accreditation of companies with the university's Placement office and regulates the use of the various services integrated with the database of student and graduate resumes.

Database search and selection.
The company can explore the entire database by pre-viewing CVs (devoid of personal identifiers), through the use of the search engine that combines text search by keyword with criteria based on educational qualification, language skills and digital skills, preferences with regards to the company area of placement, and willingness to relocate.
The company can select profiles in line with the position sought and access the resumes complete with identification and contact information. Selected resumes remain available within the restricted area.
It is possible to store the selection criteria of each search made, associating a description, for later reuse.

Job and/or internship inbox.
Companies may independently prepare job offers indicating the characteristics of the position and the requirements for the candidate. After appropriate verifications by the Placement office staff, the advertisement is published and remains online for the time set by the company. Graduates browse the vacancies and apply to individual ads by submitting the CV in the database and cover letter. The recruiter can receive the applications directly by e-mail and consult and evaluate them within their own restricted area.

Curriculum Vitae.
The AlmaLaurea resume has recently been innovated in graphics and structure to benefit conciseness and readability.The use of a standardized structure helps the recruiter identify key information within the resume.
The graduates will have the possibility to stand out and promote their profile, integrating information on the degree and any professional experience with the skills acquired and goals achieved, and using the various optional sections (information on professional titles/recognitions/accreditations, participation in conferences and seminars, publications...) to make the most of their experiences and skills.
