In 2019, Ashesi received a 90% rating for career placement outcomes by the IFC’s Vitae Programme. The programme evaluates a university’s strategy for graduate employability, the quality and relevance of learning, employer engagement, career and placement services, student retention, and alumni engagement. The ambition is to foster the development of higher employability standards in emerging markets and improve student outcomes. Ashesi’s rating was one of the highest among peers globally.
