Industry can be regarded as the main customer of a university. Therefore it is essential to ensure that knowledge, skills and competences of graduates correspond to the needs of industrial organizations – potential employers of the university graduates. Nowadays the needs of the industry are reflected in different qualification frameworks that are developed for the purposes of professional certification, standardization and cooperation. Analysis of the correspondence between the learning outcomes of study programs and these frameworks helps to assess the quality of study programs and define their development strategies and tactics. The abovementioned analysis can be enhanced by a software tool that enables linkage between different conceptual structures
