Abstract:

The research developed a web application to help the alumni officer resolve the tedious and time consuming method of managing and retrieving alumni data and to provide affiliate companies a means of disseminating job opening information to Letran alumni applicants. Descriptive research design was used to better understand the depth of the problems in the situation and to formulate the study’ s objectives and develop the needed system. A survey was done to test the acceptance and efficiency of the system with 25 Letran alumni, four company representatives, and the alumni officer. Results of the study showed that the system proved to be both easy to use and useful for the respondents. It met the study’s objectives by improving the retrieval, gathering and management of alumni information. It also provided a means of disseminating job opening information from affiliate companies to Letran alumni, not just as an additional way of accomplishing tracer forms, but also as a way of applying for jobs directly through the system.
