Placement Stats

You can use the Placement Stats report to generate a summary of placement activity in your institution. The report excludes Cancels, Drops and Internship/Externship jobs.

If you frequently generate reports with the same selection criteria, you can save the selection criteria under a name. This makes it easier to regenerate the report with the same settings in the future.

Procedure to Generate the Report

  1. Specify the data selection criteria.

    Campus GroupsClosed The group you specified for the campus. Your institution configures the groups for campuses.

    CampusesClosed The campus or campuses to which a person or item is assigned. It is filtered to display the campuses to which you have access. In some cases, it is also used to filter a list to only those items for the campus. In some lists, you can select more than one campus or select All. In lists that display columns, if the column contains more than one campus, you cannot sort or filter on that column.

    Career Service AdvisorsClosed First and last name of the Career Services Advisor. By default, the list is sorted by first name.

    Employment TypesClosed The default employment types are Employment, Internship/Externship, and In School. You must be authorized to enter Job Type descriptions, codes, and active status.

    Graduation DateClosed The date when the student graduated or is scheduled to graduate from the program version. From and To

    Load Saved CriteriaClosed Select the saved criteria you want to load in the selection criteria fields.

    Program Version Start DateClosed The start date of the program version for the campus that the student is enrolling in. From and To

    Program VersionsClosed The program version associated with the student or item.

    ProgramsClosed The name of the program. Programs are configured by your institution.

    Student GroupsClosed The name of the student group. If your institution has configured Anthology Student to limit groups to campuses, you can only select groups for the campus to which you are assigned. The list can also be filtered to display groups where you are the owner, public groups, and private groups to which you have been given access.

    Student Statuses Closed The prospect or student status at your institution is configurable and may differ by school. When you change a student's status, you must confirm the update in a dialog box, and if there are pending tasks from the previous status, another dialog lets you choose which tasks to keep or close as canceled. A student's current status (like Active) depends on their history and activation units; simply entering a Version Start Date does not automatically activate them without proper status progression. Status values help filter student records in lists, processes, and reports. Alumni statuses include "complete" or "graduated."

Take the appropriate action.

Task Action to Take

  1. Select the View Report button. Anthology Student displays the generated report.
Export the report

  2. Review, specify, or change the following value.

    Export File NameClosed The name of the item (e.g., data set, batch, job, process, task, person, organization, entity, file).

  3. Select the Export button.

Anthology Student exports the generated report as a CSV file, which may be viewed in Excel. In some cases, the exported file will contain additional data not displayed in the report on your screen.

If you entered special characters like *, -, !, (, or ) in the report fields, Anthology Student automatically prepends an apostrophe to those field values upon export to Excel or CSV. The apostrophe is added to reduce vulnerability, as these characters are perceived by Excel as an actionable formula. Once the report is exported to Excel, Anthology suggests using find and replace on the characters only if necessary to restore original values.
