Pathways to education and work in Ontario and Canada

Abstract

This report investigates the nature of pathways within postsecondary education and between postsecondary education and the labour market in Ontario and Canada. It explores the extent to which students stay within the same field of education when they undertake a second postsecondary education qualification, and the links between their qualifications and the labour market in different fields of education. It uses the 2013 National Graduate Survey produced by Statistics Canada which surveyed students who graduated from their program in 2009 and 2010. Graduates were surveyed in 2013, at least two years after they had graduated.
