Students' Perception Of Professional Achievements And Their Effects On Professional Integration

Authors : Boussaada Hallouma .

Abstract

Several authors have shown that little research has been done on the assessment of the professional achievements of young graduates in the pedagogical literature devoted to university education (Romainville, [1], [2], [3], [4] ; De Ketele, [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], Opinion of The High Council of Evaluation, [12] ; Boussada & De Ketele, [13], [14], [15]).The few studies that deal with student’s learning revolve around four themes: the skills of students at the beginning of their studies (as in the Belgian interuniversity study «Mohican» coordinated by Leclercq, [16]), students’ perception of the outcome skills (as in Heywood, [17]), their methodological skills (as in De Ketele, Draime and Voglaire, [18]; Lemenu & Heinen, [19]) and the general effects of higher education (as in Paul and Sulleman, [20]). However, few studies provide accurate indicators of measured professional skills and labour market requirements ((Fernex et Lima [21] ; Beduwe, [22] [23] ; Dubois, et Vourc’h, [24] ; Kouakou et Vianney Yapo [25]). This study is a retrospective evaluation of the quality of university education provided by graduates with work experience. The results of a questionnaire conducted with a sample of 158 students show the difficulty of the university in implementing relevant and valid assessments that promote the development of the required skills in professional life.
