Placement Verification

You can use the Placement Verification report as a tool for processing verifications. You can generate a list for a group of students with a column that indicates whether their employment has been verified and use the list of those students who have not been verified as a checklist when performing the verifications.

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 RepresentativesClosed The Career Service Representative for the student. If a staff member is removed from a Career Service Representative group after having been assigned to a student, Anthology Student retains the name of the former representative on the student record.

    Date PlacedClosed The date when the placement record was posted. From and To

    Employment TypeClosed 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

    In School Placement StatusesClosed Specifies the in-school placement status of the prospect or student at your institution. Statuses vary by institution. They are configured by your institution.

    Job CategoriesClosed Specifies the category to which the job is related. Job Categories are configured by your institution. You cannot select a Job Category associated with a campus if you do not have permissions for that campus.

    Job TypesClosed Select the job type. Job types are configured by your institution. Job types group similar jobs into categories. You can then use them for reporting and filtering. Job types can be full-time, part-time, hourly, and salaried.

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

    Placement StatusesClosed The placement status of the student.

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

    Start DateClosed The first day the item takes effect or becomes active. Depending on the context of the associated record, the start date can also be the start of a time range, session, or activity (e.g., job, program, course, term, payment period, academic year, enrollment). From and To

    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 ID to PrintClosed Indicates whether you want to include the Student ID, Social Security Number, Enrollment Number, or None. Note: The ID is printed for each student selected for the report. Most reports have all three student IDs available to print on the report. The SSN is required on some reports. You must be authorized to view social security numbers (SSNs) and to select SSNs in the list. Reports about leads (prospects) do not have an Enrollment ID. The ID selection is not used for reports that do not list individual students.

    Student StatusesClosed 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."

    VerifiedClosed Select an option for verified for which you want to generate the report.

Take the appropriate action.

  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.
