Mixed methods exploratory research design was employed for the study. 10 industry technical managers were interviewed and the interview data were analyzed using coding process of open coding, axial coding and selective coding. The interview data were used to develop a structured questionnaire that validated by 4 experts. Alpha value for pilot test was 0.89. Sample of the survey were 646 including 528 ETE graduates, 22 ETE lecturers and 96 industry technical managers. Stepwise Linear Regression and Confirmatory Factor Analysis were used to analyze the survey.
