Guidance and counseling Department of UNNES with A grade of accreditation, need to maintain the grade of the accreditation in 2017.

The products of an educational institution is the alumni, the quality of graduates is the quality parameters of the education provider institutions including higher education study guidance counseling department of UNNES. This phenomenon was felt to be important to the recorded the track of their competence in order to maintain the quality of education and its continuity. Study Program Guidance Counseling FIP-UNNES already have alumni about 90 to 100 every year spread all over Indonesia, especially in the province of Central Java. A large number of guidance and counseling alumni will have an impact upon the quality and life througho the nation, especially in education (Bodycott, P. 2009). One important effort that needs to be done is evaluating the educational institution graduates including needs and satisfaction of students and stakeholders (stakeholders) after graduate from the university. To know the progress guidance and counseling department over the years relating to interest, absorption in the labor market as a result of the competitive world of work are higher. Related to this fact, guidance and counseling department UNNES competence will be studying whether it has met the expectations of various demands of the working world. Another dimension of alumni searching are providing data for materials through department evaluation adapted to the needs of the labor market. This is consistent with what has been proposed by the former Minister of labor and Transmigration, Muhaimin Iskandar (in www.Okezone edition News.com Thursday, May 30, 2013) that university graduates can no longer rely solely on a diploma in finding jobs, there is a demand for the bachelor to have competence and skills, so it can be absorbed by the labor market quickly. The quality of educational outcomes of Counseling program can be seen from whether graduates can meet the needs of stakeholders Citing the BAN PT (2008), explained that the quality of graduates has a characteristic mastery of academic competencies include hard skills and soft skills as stated in quality objectives as well as evidenced by the performance of graduates in society in accordance with the profession and science. Government regulations of the qualifications and competence of guidance and counseling teachers or counselor is Education Minister Regulation No. 27 Years 2008 regarding the standard of academic qualifications and competence of counselors in Indonesia. The policy requires preparing and pro ducing graduates with appropriate qualifications and competence (Raybould, M., & Wilkins, H. 2005; Jackson, D. 2010; Jackson, D. 2009). The latest policy associated with guidance and counseling teacher or counselor is the Regulation of the Minister of Education and Culture No. 111 of 2014 About Guidance and Counseling Unit of Basic Education and Secondary Education Unit, which demanded that guidance and counseling teacher or counselor should be competent in carrying out his profession. If we look more closely at the practice of guidance and counseling in the community, especially in school’s settings, then revealed some facts showed that guidance and counseling teacher were deemed to be not competent (Mind, 2009). It was triggered by the incompetence of guidance and counseling teacher competence in school. Empirical evidence from studies evaluating the service quality of guidance and counseling in Cilacap area indicates that guidance and counseling services in schools have not been satisfactory. (Http://mm.unsoed.net/content. Php? Cat = thesis & id = 367). In line with this, Sugiyo (2010) suggests that people still consider that the performance of guidance and counseling teacher or counselor is irrelevant to the standard of professional services of guidance and counseling. The above description suggests how real conditions of guidance and counseling associated with graduates. If there is no improvement in the situation, that will have a great impact of the lack of trust and interest of stakeholders to guidance and counseling graduates. Furthermore, this situation will cause lack of interesting to guidance and counseling graduates in the community because considered disappointing and far from professional degrees. This situation showed the importance of alumni quality investigation. So it requires deeper study of the guidance and counseling teacher alumni. Alumni searching on this year was very important to get more accurate data about the condition of Guidance and Counseling Department alumni and for accreditation of Guidance and Counseling depart Fiment preparation in 2017 . Based on background research above, the purpose of this study was to determine graduate employability of graduate’s Guidance Counseling Program and specifically to identify the level of competence of graduates in the working world, as well as be used as input for the management COUNS-EDU  The International Journal of Counseling and Education Vol.2, No.2, 2017 Graduate profile of guidance and counseling...| 59 Indonesian Counselor Association (IKI) | DOI: https://doi.org/10.23916/002017026820 study program on counseling FIP UNNES in improving and managing prime service that will be given to stakeholders.
