This year, UW-Stout is participating in the 2024 National Alumni Career Mobility (NACM) Survey, now conducted by Lightcast, a leader in labor market analytics and workforce data. The NACM survey captures comprehensive career pathway data from our alumni, focusing on key areas that provide insights into the value and impact of a UW-Stout education.
Graduates from 2014 and 2019—both bachelor's and master's programs—are invited to participate. Your feedback is invaluable in shaping future academic and career services, helping us support the next generation of Blue Devils.
