James Madison University launches two-sided graduate guarantee
Original: JMU launches two~sided guarantee for its graduates and the employers who hire them
James Madison University has announced a new two-sided guarantee covering both its graduates and the employers who hire them. Under the scheme, the university stands behind the skills and preparation of its graduates, while also offering assurances to employers that JMU alumni will perform in the workplace. It is part of a wider trend of colleges adding guarantees to boost the value of their degrees.
Why now: Universities increasingly face pressure to demonstrate the real-world value of a degree, and an employer-facing guarantee is an unusual, attention-grabbing step.
