CC Structure

The University has started to conduct research of its alumni’s data since 1996. Since 2006 the Alumni Employment and Career Center (hereinafter: Career Center) has been functioning at Yerevan Haybusak University with the aim to increase the competitiveness of Haybusak University students and alumni in the labor market, to develop professional practical skills of learners during their studies, to reinforce continuous connection between the alumni and the University as well as to study the needs of employers.

The main goal of the Career Center is to foster the assurance of links among the University, labor market, learners, and alumni.

The main objectives of the Career Center are:

• to submit applications of the alumni and students who search for a job and to inform about vacancies existent in the labor market;
• to study, analyze and summarize the requirements set for the jobs in the labor market;

• to cooperate with organizations operating in Armenia, to organize mutual visits;
• to organize voluntary participation of students in the activities of enterprises;
• to organize events (meetings, gatherings, talks) that will help the students with their career orientation.

The data on alumni and job-seeking students are collected in the Center’s database, after which the information on vacancies and professional trainings is regularly provided to them. The Career Center updates the information on professional career of the alumni every year.

Graduates are also the best employers for the University. As a result of the cooperation with them, the Center fulfills one of its main objectives – it studies the requirements of employers set for the labor force and provides basis for making changes in study programs.
