We will be able to establish those who are employed, self employed and unemployed,&#8221; said Malimba.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that tracing the graduates will help them to rate and know if the knowledge they gained from SFB was helpful in the job market.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We shall also be able to get the perception of the employers about our graduates,&#8221; he said, adding that all the information collected will be used to fill the gaps in their system and adjust their curriculum accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>Alex Mwesigye, the Intern Support Assistant at D.O.T Rwanda and a former SFB student welcomed the survey.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is good to SFB, students and the employers. It will help them to know what the job market exactly wants,&#8221; said Mwesigye.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that universities have designed curricula that are no longer relevant hence producing graduates who are of little help to the problems of society today.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think it will help them design programs that will equip students with relevant skills that are needed on the job market,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Jonan Musonera, a graduate of the National University of Rwanda, says that all universities should follow suit to be able to understand job market requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The survey is expected to end by September this year.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201106240239.html\" title=\"SFB to Keep Track of Graduates\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SFB to Keep Track of Graduates<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Charles Kwizera 24 June 2011 The School of Finance and Banking (SFB) is in preparations to conduct a traceability survey of all the students who graduated from the institution.
