Education quarterly review

November 2000

Education quarterly review, Statistics Canada's flagship publication for education statistics, analyzes current issues and trends in education. The November 2000 issue, available today, contains two reports, one analyzing graduates' employment and earnings, and the other examining whether recent college, bachelor's and doctoral graduates were overqualified for their main job.

Graduates at all levels, men and women, experienced generally lower unemployment rates than did non-graduates, and improved their rates significantly between two and five years following graduation.

The November 2000 issue of Education quarterly review (81-003-XIE, $16/$51; 81-003-XPB, $21/$68) is now available. See How to order products. The "Study on employment and earnings of graduates" is available as a free preview article of this publication on the In depth page of Statistics Canada's Web site (www.statcan.ca).
