Results: The results showed that more females than males finished the program. In the region of origin, there were more graduates from region 10 and few from the CARAGA region. Most of the graduates resided in Cagayan de Oro City and only a few were from the provinces. Most of them continued with their current work and more were undergone for further studies. More of those who pursued entrepreneurial ventures had gross monthly income of Php25,000 and above. Of those who pursued further studies, the majority of them took up a Doctoral Degree. The study concluded that most MBA graduates were in the services sector, some in manufacturing, and a few were working in the agricultural sector. Conclusion: Based on the survey, the leading common values practiced by the MBA graduates which were helpful in their endeavors were endurance, honesty, resourcefulness, and teamwork.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Tracer study, master in business administration, graduates, curriculum, employee, business venture, further studies, Philippines. |\n\n\n| Activities After Graduation | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Continued with Current Work | 52 | 72.22 | 1 |\n| Further Studies | 13 | 18.06 | 2 |\n| Self-employed/Entrepreneurial pursuits | 7 | 9.72 | 3 |\n| Total | 72 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Activities After Graduation | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Continued with Current Work | 52 | 72.22 | 1 |\n| Further Studies | 13 | 18.06 | 2 |\n| Self-employed/Entrepreneurial pursuits | 7 | 9.72 | 3 |\n| Total | 72 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Gross Monthly Income | Frequency | Percent | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Below 5,000 to less than 15,000 | 0 | - |  |\n| 15,000 to less than 20,000 | 1 | 14.29 | 3 |\n| 20,000 to less than 25,000 | 2 | 28.57 | 2 |\n| 25,000 and above | 4 | 57.14 | 1 |\n| Total | 7 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| MBA Core Courses | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Development of Entrepreneur | 3 | 42.86 | 1 |\n| Financial Management | 2 | 28.57 | 2 |\n| Marketing Management | 1 | 14.28 | 3 |\n| Computer Methods for Managers | 1 | 14.28 | 3 |\n| Total | 7 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Field of Studies | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| DBM | 9 | 69.23 | 1 |\n| DM | 2 | 15.39 | 2 |\n| PhD | 1 | 7.69 | 3 |\n| Others | 2 | 7.69 |  |\n| Total | 13 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Reasons for Pursuing Advanced Studies | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| For promotion | 7 | 53.85 | 1 |\n| For professional development | 4 | 30.77 | 2 |\n| Others | 2 | 15.38 | 3 |\n| Total | 13 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| MBA Core Courses | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Financial Management | 4 | 30.77 | 1 |\n| Management Accounting | 3 | 23.08 | 2 |\n| Quantitative Analysis for Business Decisions | 2 | 15.39 | 3 |\n| Development of Entrepreneur | 1 | 7.69 |  |\n| Macro-Micro Economics | 1 | 7.69 |  |\n| Marketing Research/Management Studies | 1 | 7.69 |  |\n| Production Management | 1 | 7.69 |  |\n| Total | 13 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Job Level Position | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Staff or rank and file | 30 | 57.69 | 1 |\n| Supervisor | 12 | 23.08 | 2 |\n| Manager | 6 | 11.54 | 3 |\n| Assistant Manager | 4 | 7.69 |  |\n| Total | 52 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Sector | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Services | 30 | 57.69 | 1 |\n| Manufacturing | 16 | 30.77 | 2 |\n| Agriculture | 6 | 11.54 | 3 |\n| Total | 52 | 100 |  |\n\n\n| Gross Monthly Income | Frequency | Percentage | Rank |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Below 5,000 | - | - |  |\n| 5,000 to less than 10,000 | - | - |  |\n| 10,000 to l","cbCaipIN7KFV2VNN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipIN7KFV2VNN","pdf",266571,"English","# Activities After Graduation\n## Employment, Further Studies, and Entrepreneurial Pursuits\n# Income and Advanced Study Patterns\n## Gross Monthly Income Categories\n## Reasons for Pursuing Further Studies\n# Academic and Professional Profile\n## Field of Studies and Core Courses\n## Job Level Position and Sector\n# Skills and Values\n## Professional Skills\n## Values or Traits","[{\"question\":\"What activities do most MBA graduates undertake after graduation?\",\"answer\":\"Most graduates continue with their current work.
