Abstract

The main objective of the present research was to establish a model for the implementation of the monitoring of graduates and degree completers of the American University, Nicaragua, for which it was proposed to identify the theoretical basis for the model, describe the model then, and assess the importance that this has. From the above, we worked with a database from 1992 to 2022 in business administration and industrial engineering careers, totaling 832 graduates and degree completers, with a standard deviation of 0.5, a confidence level of 95% with Z=1.96, and a 5% error. Using the previous statistics, a sample of 191 graduates with a degree in Business Administration and 208 graduates with a degree in Industrial Engineering was established. According to the results obtained, it was concluded that it is pertinent to reorient some questions to obtain the perception results; Indicators are established for the quality and efficiency of the institution, in terms of recommending the American University as a home of study and the interest in supplementary studies, finally the importance of the implementation of a follow-up comprehensive model for graduates, which it has to carry out actions to improve academic quality.
