Abstract

This tracer study evaluates the employment outcomes of Bachelor of Physical Education (BPED) Batch 2023 graduates, focusing on job relevance, employment status, and challenges faced. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the study surveyed 69 graduates to assess their employment status, job alignment with their field of study, and the obstacles encountered in the job market. Findings reveal that while a significant portion of graduates are employed, many occupy part-time or unrelated roles, with 42.03% remaining unemployed. The study highlights challenges such as the need for licensure exam preparation, lack of professional experience, and a competitive job market. Results indicate a mismatch between academic training and job market demands, suggesting that the BPED program should enhance practical experience opportunities and career support services. Recommendations include integrating more hands-on experience within the curriculum and improving career guidance to better align graduates' skills with industry needs. These insights aim to guide program improvements and support the successful transition of future graduates into the workforce.
