Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This set of Web Tables presents descriptive statistics on the spring 2009 labor market experiences of subbaccalaureate students who first entered postsecondary education in 2003-04. The Web Tables use data from the nationally representative 2004/09 Beginning Post-secondary Students Longitudinal Study (BPS:04/09), which followed a cohort of first-time postsecondary students for 6 academic years, from 2003-04 until 2008-09. For both certificate and associate's degree students, results are shown for completers and noncompleters. Completers are categorized based on the highest degree they attained, and non-completers are classified based on their initial degree program. The tables are organized as follows: Tables 1 and 2 introduce the groups of interest by providing percentage distributions of both the initial degree or certificate program of all 2003-04 first-time postsecondary students and the degree or certificate completion status for those no longer enrolled as of spring 2009. Subsequent tables show results by completion status in two series, first for certificate students (tables 3-11) and then for associate's degree students (tables 12-20). Tables 3 and 12 begin each series and provide context for the outcomes reported in the rest of the series by presenting data on demographics, enrollment characteristics, and employment after enrollment. Beginning with tables 4 and 13, each after enrollment. Beginning with tables 4 and 13, each table examines specific spring 2009 employment results for completers and noncompleters with selected demographic, enrollment, and employment characteristics. Tables 4-6 and 13-15 report on the labor force participation of certificate and associate's degree students, respectively. They include data about unemployment spells and spring 2009 employment status, displaying findings by demographics and enrollment characteristics. Tables 7-11 and 16-20 provide further information about certificate and associate's degree students' spring 2009 employment, such as annual earnings, employer-offered benefits, and job satisfaction, by demographics, enrollment characteristics, and employment characteristics. (Contains 100 tables and 3 endnotes.).

Download or read book The First Real Job written by Kathryn M. Borman and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1991-07-03 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the work experiences of twenty-five young men and women in their first jobs following high school. The case studies profiled here describe in detail the process of young workers becoming established in our society. The workplaces in which Kathryn M. Borman and her colleagues spent full shifts once a month for over a year were the locales for young workers' first "real" jobs—jobs they held for more than six months and viewed as a means of entree to adult responsibilities. This study is one of the first to provide an intimate picture of the daily work lives of young factory workers, bank clerks, health spa employees and others who hold jobs in the youth labor market. How jobs provide opportunities for some and hold little hope for advancement for most is vividly described. How employers can improve working conditions for their young employees—especially young women—is clearly apparent in this analysis of the workplace as a "democratic community." Sociologists and others in the fields of education, labor market economics, women's studies, and the anthropology of work will find this volume important reading.

This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study used data from the Baccalaureate and Beyond (B&B) and Beginning Postsecondary Student (BPS) studies to examine: the early labor force experiences of college students who either graduated or dropped out; student borrowing for postsecondary education; and student loan debt burden and repayment status. The B&B group (n=11,000) was followed one year after graduation in 1992-93. The nonbaccalaureates (n=8000) were those from the BPS group who enrolled in 1989-90 but did not graduate. Among the study's findings were: 87 percent of the graduates and 81 percent of the nonbaccalaureate group were employed in April of 1994; the average salary in 1994 was $22,100 for graduates and $16,600 for non-graduates; during the first year of graduation, about 29 percent of graduates had experienced unemployment, whereas among the nonbaccalaureate group, about one-third had experienced unemployment (since 1989); nearly one half of the graduates borrowed some money for their education--an average of $10,200; one year after graduating, 63 percent of bachelor's degree recipients had no debt; 29 percent of graduates were required to make loan payments, and the remaining 8 percent still owed but were not required to make payments; graduates were repaying on average of $136 per month, non-graduates an average of $76 per month. Appendixes include a glossary and technical notes on the methodology.(DM)

Book excerpt: ?Anyone interested in a better trained workforce should read this book. Well-paying jobs requiring less than a college degree are a growing sector of the economy that is often ignored. Grubb's book shows how community colleges can improve the chances of Americans securing those jobs.?--Jack Jennings, director, Center on National Education Policy?Community colleges have become America's premier training institution's and Norton Grubb has written the definitive book on how they fit into the labor market and affect economic outcomes. Working In The Middle will the standard source for years to come.?--Paul Osterman, professor of human resources and management, Sloan School, MITSixty percent of America's workers have at least a high school diploma but lack a baccalaureate degree. Working in the Middle explains why this seldom studied workforce is critical to the nation's economic well-being, and offers recommAndations for business leaders, educators, trainers, and labor economists to maintain the vitality of this enormous group of workers, the backbone of the economy.Working in the Middle is the first book to offer a comprehensive view of the education and training of this growing mid-skilled labor force. Based on both statistical research and interviews with students, educators, and employers, this important resource offers a thorough examination of ?workers in the middle,? focusing on workers' characteristics, the types of work they perform, how they prepared for and obtained their positions, and what further skills do they need to develop.

Download or read book The Changing Adolescent Experience written by Jeylan T. Mortimer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-09-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The path adolescents take from childhood to adulthood is a product of social, economic, political, and technological forces. These forces may facilitate youth's preparation to become healthy adults, or they may leave youth unprepared for adulthood. Knowledgeable projections are vital in shaping the agenda for research; for alerting educators, policy makers, and practitioners to new issues; and for formulating thoughtful responses to emerging dilemmas. This book focuses upon the future of adolescence in postindustrial societies. The authors identify some ominous societal changes that will affect youth: unstable job markets, competition for public resources due to an aging population, and widening income gaps between 'information workers' and low-skill workers. But they also observe opportunities created by information technology, innovations in health service delivery and criminal-justice rehabilitation, and the resourcefulness of a new generation. This volume examines these and other macro-structural changes that will impact adolescents' lives and their futures as adults.
