ABSTRACT
The information system for communication with alumni embodies one of many ways how a university can
keep track of its graduates. Except for communication between the university and its graduates, the
information system should allow communication between graduates themselves and their personal
presentations in public. The system also should collect actual information about the working experience of
graduates, which can improve faculty credits and the teaching process. The presented information system
includes all these points and focuses on usability and a comfortable user interface.
The project mange the fresh as well as old graduate students with their respective information by actively
participating in making registering, searching, and managing the alumni information for sharing their
expertise, network, jobs opportunities, and resources. This participation has evolved into multiple
dimensions; and is now eager to formally enter into the domain of mentorship to students through a regular
program. The Alumni Management System (Alumni Dashboard) is a step towards this, creating
multidimensional interactions between current and past students of Eastern Visayas State University
Tanauan Campus.
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
technology with other, related technologies, specifically communication technology. ICT is the technology
that supports activities involving information. Such activities include gathering, processing, storing, and
presenting data. Increasingly these activities also involve collaboration and communication. A technology
that is used to handle communications processes such as telecommunications, broadcast media, intelligent
building management systems, audiovisual processing, and transmission systems, and network-based
The Eastern Visayas State University Tanauan Campus (EVSU - TC) is a public university in the
Philippines and one of the oldest higher educational institutions in the Eastern Visayas region. Institutions
should not lose control over alumni especially because they are truly valuable assets. These days schools
and colleges are finding it difficult to create a bond between the campus and the alumni. Lose the data, and
you have lost all control, track, and trace. And time consuming in generating summary reports of the
employment status of the alumnus. Building meaningful relationships with students and alumni is important
for the strategic growth and advancement of higher education programs. Though alumni typically move
continuously from campus to pursue a career, they can stay in touch and build a global professional
network. Current students at institutions benefit from the mentorship opportunities and improved job
placement rates that engaged alumni bring. And institutions can partner with alumni to meet financial goals
In this concern, the proponents proposed to develop a system entitled EVSU Tanauan Campus
Alumni Management System. The system will help to collect essential information concerning the
employment profile of graduates, the current jobs of graduates, post job hiring, the alumni awardee, current
offerings of the university and the relevance of their educational background and skills required in their
job. The system will automatically organize the information of the alumnus of the graduates. The institution
of Eastern Visayas State Tanauan Campus and the graduates will benefit from this system which work
become productive in the said institution, and the alumni will guarantee their information is secured. The
This proposed system will be online so it can be accessed by the alumnus anywhere. It will enable
quick and easy communication. Each user will be able to update their information where they can update
profiles as to present address, employee, email adds, active social media account, active public number,
status affiliation, current photo. And it makes it unique from other systems, for the reason that it has one
feature that the alumni is provided a chatbox to communicate with others. And also a public that an admin
can also send and receive messages coming from the alumnus. . It will generate summary reports of the
employment status of the alumnus. The proposed system has one feature that the admin can post
announcements or any activities of the campus and also the alumnus can also post announcements but it
will verify by the admin if the post of the alumnus is valid and reliable. Alumni will be able to organize
meetings and find out about job opportunities on themselves using this system. In doing so, it will help to
. According to the study in 2020 report from the Voluntary Alumni Engagement in Support of
Education (VAESE), 68 percent of higher education institutions have seen an increase or no change in
alumni requesting not to be contacted by the institution, with a 15 percent increase in those asking to be
added to the "do-not-contact" list since 2015. As institutions continue to explore new digital solutions to
3
better support students who are learning remotely, leaders have an opportunity to use technology to build
engaging experiences and maintain a student-institution relationship across the student lifecycle and
beyond graduation.
In the study conducted by Agudera and Mendiola (2013) the implementation of Alumni Information
System, the system will be secured, the process in having the student information will become faster, and
accurate generating reports. The system will secure student files using the log-in log-out form for the
unauthorized users. The developers design the interface so the users will understand the system easily and
use the Microsoft Access for database to store important information. The system will help a school to be
well-organized.
The general objective of the study is to develop the EVSU Tanauan Campus Alumni Management
System that will provide a connection that will update the current situation of the institution to the alumni.
1. To provide communication that will connect other EVSU Tanauan Campus alumni seniors.
2. To track the EVSU Tanauan Campus Alumni users about their employment status.
3. To provide a system that is capable to maintain over years and preserve the information of the
The focus of this project is to develop a management system for EVSU Tanauan Campus. The
system is intended only for the alumni of the university. The system should accomplish the functionalities
such as being able to display all the alumni data. And the alumni can update general information of their
4
profile, can post job hiring and advertisements. And the system admin will be capable to create and
updates news, activities, events, and announcements about the university. And provide an account for the
alumni who can access the system and will provide a chat box to communicate with the other alumni
seniors.
The proposed system of the proponents is exclusive to the alumni of the EVSU Tanauan Campus.
The focus of the system will only on the alumni user’s communication and posting needed information.
The Management System will be a great benefit to the alumni of EVSU Tanauan Campus. And
using the system will be easy to access, retrieve and search for the records of the alumni.
People affected by the system may gain potential benefits and significant impacts from the project.
Alumni. The alumni will be able to communicate to other alumni regardless of what is purposed. They can
find or post jobs. They will be also informed about incoming events that the institution is preparing.
Proponents. The proponents will gain knowledge and understanding of conducting the system with the
combination of Analysis and Design. This project may also help the proponents in practicing systematic
Eastern Visayas State University – Tanauan Campus. The system will provide a new approach process
that will lessen the work related to the processing of former and new students. The alumni will also be
interested to maintain relations with their institutions. The institution can also hire alumni for the work and
Future Researchers. The proposed study will benefit future researchers in their reference for conducting a
related study. And giving them an idea to improve furthermore in the previous studies.

CHAPTER II
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Online social interactions have become a way of life. Virtual meetings and chatting are now a large
component of our social circles. These engagements have broken physical barriers and have made
communication even more seamless and better. Sadly, these social interaction platforms haven’t been
much utilised in very many institutions, yet they come with loads of benefits. This study is localised to
Makerere University, but its findings are generalizable to most institutions and the solutions provided can
be customized to the various places of need. In this study, we set out to understand the gap in the
communication and interaction between the university, its alumni and the students. Consequently, the main
objective of this research project was to identify the information gap between the administration, alumni and
students of Makerere University and thereafter devise solutions to this challenge. To fully understand the
problem at hand, data collection techniques such as use of questionnaires, interviews, reviewing existing
literature were used. Design methods such as process modelling, functional modelling and data modelling
were used in the system analysis & design phase. The implementation was done with programming
languages such as HTML5, CSS, PHP, JavaScript and their related frameworks such as jQuery and
Bootstrap. The developed system bridges the gap between the different stakeholders by providing a
platform of engagement for information sharing, fundraising for given causes, mentorship, real time tracking
of projects and recognition for all the outstanding alumni. Based on Nanseera et al., (2021).
According to Bista.,(2021), Alumni tracking is a difficult task for any institution that has been
running for a long time. The Department of Electronics and Computer Engineering (DOECE), Pulchowk
Campus, IOE, has been offering undergraduate programs since 1994 A.D. and masters programs since
2001 A.D. The existing information about the alumni of the department is unmanaged and out of date. This
6
paper presents a web-based system to integrate data of alumni into a well-managed database, and to act
as a portal where alumni can update their current status and view online alumni yearbooks. This work aims
to make the task of alumni tracking easier and simpler for the department. The web-based portal has been
accessed by many alumni of the department starting from the earliest batches to update their information
and see the whereabouts of others. From the collected alumni responses, some preliminary insights
observed were: (a) it was seen that alumni seem to be heterogeneous both in their job positions and
employers, however, a large portion are employed in the software sector, (b) most alumni (60%) are
currently residing in Nepal, and (c) for further education, the USA (39%) seems to be the favored choice,
According to study of Norazmi, Ahmad, (2020), Alumni are graduate from a college or university.
Every university wants to stay in touch with all their alumni. Contact information is usually provided by
alumni during graduation. After getting a job, alumni usually move from family home to a location near the
workplace. Alumni contact information such as new addresses and phone numbers are usually not updated
by alumni. However, after graduation, alumni are usually still using the same social media account used
during the study. The university can use social media to communicate with their alumni. Alumni status in
social media should be active in order to be contacted by the university. A web-based application system
for monitoring Alumni Active Status on Social Media was developed to help the university to monitor their
alumni active status on social. This system allows university to store the social profile information of their
alumni. The university can easily update the events of university and interact with alumni on social media.
There are three groups of user for this system: admin, lecturer and alumni. The main objective is to develop
a system to monitor the active status of alumni on social media using Rapid Application Development
(RAD) methodology. This methodology consists of several phases such as requirements planning, user
design, construction and cutover. The results of the evaluation suggested that this system is useful and
7
easy to use. The respondents also satisfied with this system that can give benefits to the university, lecturer
and alumni. The study contributes towards an understanding the system requirements and user interface of
a web-based application of System Monitoring Alumni Active Status on Social Media. It can be a reference
model for developers and researchers in the area to develop a similar web-based application enhancing the
capabilities in creating and monitoring the active status of alumni on social media.
Alumnus is someone who has graduated from high school or college and has an important role in
showing image and quality, because the alumni association forum is not just a forum for friendship between
alumni, but also a forum for discussion and communication in an effort to advance higher education. Until
now, alumni of the National University (UNAS) integrate and communicate only through social networks
such as WhatsApp and Facebook, so with this web-based internet facility, alumni can utilize and facilitate
communication between alumni. This web-based social network is designed not only to connect alumni
from the National University (UNAS) but can establish relationships between National University lecturers
(UNAS) and can exchange information in various types such as job vacancies, training, professional
certification, campus environment activities and information others that are useful for alumni and lecturers
of the National University (UNAS). This site was created by first starting the system design using UML then
proceed with the creation of a user interface and using the PHP and MySQL programming languages as
database management. This site still has some shortcomings both in terms of features and security. Based
According to Gani A.C. (2018), Data management of alumni who still use the printed document
means that data management cannot be done quickly and there are still frequent errors and difficult to
update. This problem can be overcome with a method that is developing the programming system. One of
them with software. With this information management system software is expected to help the data
management of alumni. Furthermore, the information management system software is expected to produce
8
the information needed effectively and efficiently when in making decisions in managing human resources
coming from the alumni. In order to be able to establish fellow alumni relationships for the better.
According to Ardiansyah, T. M. (2021).A tracer study is a study of tracer traces of graduates or alumni
carried out to alumni after graduation. The obstacle faced by STMIK Abulyatama in conducting a tracer
study is at the time of data collection, currently collecting data manually by distributing questionnaires and
telephone interviews with alumni and companies. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a complete E-Tracer
study service, which can provide information for higher education institutions for the benefit of curriculum
improvements, trace alumni in detail and determine user satisfaction of college graduates. The research
objectives are; (1) To find out the alumni information system using a web-based programming language, (2)
to design an alumni management information system using Data Flow Diagrams (DAD) and programming
languages such as HTML, CSS, JQuery, JSON, PHP and MySQL as databases, and (3) To improve the
existing system to be even better, by building an information system that can improve performance on
alumni data collection at Abulyatama University. The stages in the research consist of; literature study, data
collection, systems analysis, system development, and report generation. Based on the results of the
alumni information system analysis, it can be seen that until now it is still done manually. The author can
conclude several things, namely; (1) With a Web-Based Alumni Information System, it is hoped that it will
make work easier and accurate and more time-efficient information can be obtained, (2) The use of a
manual system has limitations in the data search process because the data is still stored in archive form,
( 3) Difficulty in updating the latest data for publication to the public, and (4) With this application, it is
Management System can manage alumni data of a college and provide easy access to the same. Alumni
of college stay in touch with their immediate friends and it is hard to stay connected with college mates.
Contact between alumni develops business connections and gains insight into a new field. Current students
will be initially given a student login id. Access to the system can help them to seek help in their projects or
for placements. This single system can satisfy almost every requirement of the alumni. Usually, alumni
associations are organized in colleges, but may also be organized in a place where the alumni can meet
each other. Even though there are many existing systems in colleges to maintain the alumni information,
they are manual and more time consuming for current students to reach out their alumnus and maintaining
the privacy of the alumni. To overcome these issues, we proposed a web the application allows alumni to
update their information and students can connect with them and can view the filtered events posted by
According to Mona, and Eileen(2021). A social networking site is an online platform that allows users to
create a public profile and interact with other users. In this constantly updating world, there’s a need for a
network that helps the institution to keep track of their alumnae and vice versa. And also, there might be a
need for a friendly guide to the students regarding their careers. The main objective of this project is to
build an alumni website and social networking site that establishes a link between the present students and
the alumnae of the institute. This helps the institution keep a record of their old students. Also, it does not
have much staff involvement and thus, will cleanly act as a bridge between the alumnae and the present
10
students. This website provides a user-friendly interface that facilitates the user to understand the working
of the site easily. The user will be able to register or sign up and log in to their timelines and interact with
other users. The user can share ideas, digital photos and videos, posts, personal chat, and inform others
According to Kavitha Rani P, Theophila Vaiz R, Preethi S, Roshan Ram R, (2022). The students and
alumni management system of any university is a collaborative framework that integrates the knowledge
between the students who are pursuing education and the students who have already successfully
established themselves after graduation. Various profession choices are available wherein a person could
choose from and this proposed framework is a predictive system that tries to predict the career option
based on the success rate of the student in terms of his credentials CGPA, number of projects, number of
publications, and so on and the credentials of the alumni like number of years of experience, proprietorship,
number of recognitions, designation reached, and many more. The proposed system tries to collaborate
students with alumni or the ones who have graduated from the university and together they are provided an
option to choose their career based on all the experiences they have had so far and the necessary
credentials they own. Cognitive-Agents (CAS) which exhibits rational thinking is applied in the paper to
collaborate with the students and alumni where the beliefs of the students and alumni are formulated using
the Behaviour-Observation-Belief (BOB) model. The performance achieved by the proposed CAs-based
framework towards alumni management in universities is found to be good for parameters like employment
An Electronic Learning System for Integrating Knowledge Management and Alumni Systems
According to Pohthong, A., Trakooldit, P. (2013). Nowadays, most people worldwide accept the
fact that knowledge is a very valuable asset for their success. Educational institutions such as universities,
whose main objective is to educate students to gain more knowledge and skills for their careers as well as
how to adapt and live in their community. Over the past decades, teaching and learning paradigms have
rapidly changed from traditional styles to computer-based styles. Electronic learning (e-learning) has been
recognized as an effective computer-based technology for knowledge management, life long learning, and
distant learning. Although most universities have created electronic alumni networks and systems, those
systems lack the concern of knowledge management. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an electronic
Input
The admin will register to the system by inputting a username and password. The administrator of
the system can access all the functions of the system. It is also capable of maintaining the system secure
and capable of adding, deleting, and verifying every alumnus that will register in the system. The admin has
only the authority in verifying any post of the alumnus if it is reliable. It can send also messages in public
chat. The alumnus will register to the system by inputting their username and password. They will put their
personal information in the signup form. And they have access to updating their profile information. And
they can send messages in the chatbox and post or share announcements by verifying by the admin
Process
Thus, done input will proceed to the process stage, the system will handle authentication upon
logging in, and the user that does not register will not access the system. The administrator will be able to
monitor the user access in the system in the audit trail. The admin and the alumnus, data entries that have

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a paradigm that enables the production of high-
quality, low-cost software, in the shortest amount of time. The goal of the SDLC is to produce superior
software that meets all requirements and demands of the client. The SDLC defines and outlines a detailed
plan with stages, or phases, that each encompasses its process and deliverables. Adherence to the SDLC
enhances development speed and minimizes project risks and costs associated with alternative methods of
production. The proponent used the Waterfall model paradigm to design and develop the proposed Alumni

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a computer language that makes up most web
pages and online applications. A hypertext is a text that is used to reference other pieces of text, while
a markup language is a series of markings that tells web servers the style and structure of a document.
HTML is not considered a programming language as it can’t create dynamic functionality. Instead, with
HTML, web users can create and structure sections, paragraphs, and links using elements, tags, and
attributes. The proponent will use HTML as the main structure of the page.
Cascading Style Sheets, fondly referred to as CSS, is a simple design language intended
to simplify the process of making web pages presentable. CSS handles the look and feel part of a web
page. Using CSS, you can control the color of the text, the style of fonts, the spacing between paragraphs,
how columns are sized and laid out, what background images or colors are used, layout designs, variations
in display for different devices, and screen sizes as well as a variety of other effects. The proponents use

CHAPTER IV
The findings and outcomes of the study are discussed in this chapter, which is based on the objectives
of the study.
The primary objective of the researcher that aim is to provide a connection to the alumni users that will
enable them to communicate with each other. The proponents develop functionality in the system to
provide communications, to each alumni user through private and public chats of the system. The private
chat is composed of only two persons, while the public chat is for everyone. EVSU Tanauan campus
alumni management system has proven the specific objectives that provide communication to connect with
other EVSU-TC alumni seniors. Where they can input their messages in the chat box. It has a one-to-one

CHAPTER V
Summary
The information system for communication with alumni embodies one of many ways how university
can keep tracking with its graduates. It involves communication between university and its graduates. The
system also should collect actual information about working experience of graduates, which can improve
faculty credits and teaching process. The presented information system includes all these points and
focuses on usability and comfortable user interface. The aim of this project is to build an Alumni of Eastern
Visayas State University Tanauan Campus online dashboard, it is intended to manage especially the
Alumni. The project mange the fresh as well as old graduate students with their respective information in
actively participating in making registering, searching, managing the alumni information for sharing their
expertise, network, jobs opportunities and resources. This participation has evolved into multiple
dimensions; and is now eager to formally enter into the domain of mentorship to students through a regular
program. Alumni registration management system (Alumni Dashboard) is a step towards this, creating
multidimensional interactions between current and past students of Eastern Visayas State University
Tanauan Campus.
This system provides validation in user post it can be filter if the post of the user is valid and
reliable. And it is the responsible of the admin for validating of the user post.
This system validates user posts, and it may be filtered to see if the user's post is legitimate and
This system validates user posts and allows them to be filtered to see if they are authentic and
trustworthy. It is also the administrator's job to verify the user's post. It also applies to the system's ability to
Conclusions
As the study objective is to provide communication that will connect other EVSU Tanauan Campus
alumni seniors. The researcher develops a function in the system that enables the communication between
school EVSU Tanauan Campus and Alumni seniors using the chat function in the system. The system
provided public and private chats for them. The second objective that the researcher aims to fulfil is to track
the EVSU Tanauan Campus users about their employment status. The researchers created a function in
the system that will generate summary reports about the employment status of the alumni users and
categorize them into unemployment and employed. The third objective that the researchers aim to fulfil is to
provide a system that is capable to maintain over years and preserve the information of the EVSU Tanauan
Campus institution and the alumni users. The researcher offers to monitor the program every month to
ensure the program works well and to prevent the malicious program from the system.
Recommendations
After analyzing all over the whole research, the researcher suggested recommendations for the future
researchers:
1. The researcher recommends adding additional functionality such as; video conferencing to the
system that will enable to hold face-to-face meetings without having to move to a single location
together.
2. The researcher recommends to the future researchers to put into the system functionality that
when the job hiring post is created by the one alumni user posted, when the alumni user is willing
63
to apply for the job, applicants can easily upload the requirements and documents needed in the
job description.
3. The researcher recommends to the future researchers is to put additional functionality that will
enable to see a photo gallery for every batch of graduates to remember their memories in the
institution.
