Higher education institutions are always challenged with the relevance of the programme that they offer in meeting the requirements of the job market. In today's dynamic job market, the stakeholders always strive to have the best of the best employee for contribution in their organization. There is thus a challenge of making strategic intervention in the existing programme in higher education followed by initiation of a new programme that is on the demand. This data is based on the survey conducted on the graduates' status and their employability within the span of SIX months to ONE year immediately after their graduation. The result obtained from the study is promising that the college is doing fairly well in introducing the right as well as a relevant programme but on the other hand, there are increased number of graduates available in the job market each year. This is already creating a burden in the small job market available in Bhutan. The employment statistics of Jigme Namgyel Engineering College (JNEC) seem fairly placed in comparison to its national statistics but there is a need to explore further to build employability skills and competencies of its graduates for the job markets. As a result, the study recommends the need for fostering a clear understanding of the national and international job markets with possible supports that are available and necessary to remap its approaches for further enhancing the skills development programmes of its graduates.
