Comparison

Destination metrics vs progression evidence

Comparison of destination metrics with progression evidence for mature and part-time graduates, showing what each records and what it misses.
For graduates who were already employed, the change matters more than the destination.

A side-by-side comparison for programme leads and quality teams evaluating programmes for mature and part-time students. Destination metrics record where a graduate is about 15 months on; progression evidence records what changed from a baseline at entry. Use it to argue for, and design, programme-level evidence that shows the distance graduates travelled. Koji can collect the baseline and follow-up through conversational interviews with structured questions.

What's in this comparison

Destination metrics

  • Record what a graduate is doing about 15 months on
  • Count a job held before enrolling like a new outcome
  • Code roles by occupation, missing promotions within it
  • Use annual earnings that ignore hours worked

Progression evidence

  • Record role and goals at entry as a baseline
  • Ask what changed since enrolling, and why
  • Collect concrete examples of learning used at work
  • Follow up again after three to five years
  • Report outcomes by employment status at entry
