  • 1. Provincial drop-out rates - Trends and consequences Archived
    Articles and reports: 81-004-X20050048984
    Description:

    This article uses Labour Force Survey data for the 1990-1991 to 2004-2005 school years to examine trends in the high school drop-out rate for Canada and the provinces, for males compared to and females and for census metropolitan areas compared to rural areas. A high school drop-out is defined as the share of 20-to-24-year-olds who are not attending school and who have not graduated from high school.

  • 2. Registered Apprentices: The Class of 1992, a Decade Later Archived
    Articles and reports: 81-595-M2005035
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    Potential shortages in specific trades and specific areas of the country are forecast for the coming years in Canada. One particular aspect being examined is the perceived low completion rates of Registered Apprentices (RA). This pilot study follows a longitudinal cohort of registered apprentices, who first started their programs in 1992, over a period of 11 years. The report discusses the quality of, and gaps in, current administrative data available to measure completion rates. Finally, it presents methodological work to highlight pros and cons of different approaches to calculating a completion rate.

  • 3. Participation in Postsecondary Education: Evidence from the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics Archived
    Articles and reports: 81-595-M2005036
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This report builds on previous research examining the role of family income in postsecondary education. The paper attempts to address three broad questions using data from the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID). First, has the postsecondary education participation pattern changed in the recent past either for college and university participation, or for youth of various backgrounds? Second, how are the socio-economic factors related to postsecondary participation? Does the impact of socio-economic factors differ for college and university participation? Thirdly, for those who did pursue postsecondary education, which factors are more important in the choice of institution - university versus college?

  • 4. Survey of Earned Doctorates: A Profile of Doctoral Degree Recipients. 2003-2004 Archived
    Table: 81-595-M2005032
    Description:

    This report presents information about doctoral degree recipients who graduated from Canadian universities between July 1, 2003 and June 30, 2004 as collected by the Survey of Earned Doctorates. The analysis focuses on the demographic and educational characteristics of doctoral graduates, how they financed their education, as well as their plans for further study, employment and where they intend to live in the period immediately following graduation.

  • 5. Early indicators of students at risk of dropping out of high school Archived
    Articles and reports: 81-004-X20040067781
    Description:

    Using data from the Youth In Transition Survey, this article identifies early indicators that a student might be at risk of dropping out of high school by the age of 17, by comparing high school dropouts to high school continuers and graduates on a range of characteristics at age 15.

  • 6. Who Goes? The Direct and Indirect Effects of Family Background on Access to Post-secondary Education Archived
    Articles and reports: 11F0019M2005237
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This research finds that family background (parental education level, family type, ethnicity, location) has important direct and indirect effects on post-secondary participation. The indirect effects of background operate through a set of intermediate variables representing high school outcomes and related attitudes and behaviours. Overall, the large fraction of the family background effect that operates through indirect channels indicates that the period of life before post-secondary financing and related issues become important is crucial for equitable and efficient post-secondary access. These results are based on two sex-specific measures of access (Any Post-secondary, and University) obtained from Statistics Canada's School Leavers and Follow-Up Surveys.
