METHODOLOGYFirst destination information is gathered in multiple ways. Prior to commencement, an online survey is sent toall graduating students to complete. Follow up messages are sent to students who have not completed thesurvey or who reported they were seeking employment.Additionally, six months after graduation, a search is conducted, primarily via LinkedIn, to find graduates whohad not reported any data. Faculty and staff also provide some data. This data is added to the results from thesurvey.Knowledge rate is defined by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) as the percent ofgraduates for which UW-Eau Claire has reasonable and verifiable information concerning the graduates’ postgraduation career activities. The knowledge rate refers to basic information about the career outcomes.Majors without any respondents are not listed in the report. Students with multiple majors are counted ineach major. Percentages may not sum to 100 due to rounding. International students are not included in thesurvey results.𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 % 𝐸𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑜𝑦𝑒𝑑 𝑜𝑟 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐸𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 13𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐸𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 �� 𝐺𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑢𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠 𝑊ℎ𝑜 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝐼𝑛𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑊𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝐴𝑣𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒UW-Eau Claire’s First Destination ReportGraduates from 2020-2021
