IT Graduate Employment in Cambodia: STEP Results 2025–2026

97% of STEP Cambodia graduates with confirmed status are working. See employers, salaries and real career stories from the 2025–2026 cohorts.

Choosing where to study is a major decision. Most schools explain what students will learn. Far fewer publish what happens after graduation: whether graduates find work, where they are employed, and how their careers develop. At IT Academy STEP Cambodia, we follow up with graduates after they complete their programs. Our 2025–2026 graduate employment data covers students from the 2.5-year Software Development and Computer Graphics & Design Professional Programs. The results show strong employment across both fields, and real career progression from junior roles and freelance projects to specialist and management positions.   97% of graduates are working, and many are employed even before graduation  We asked our graduates in 2025 and 2026 if they are employed, and 97% confirmed that they are working in companies, government institutions or as independent professionals. Some others continue their studies in other educational institutions and cannot yet start working full
