Download or read book Employer Aid for Postsecondary Education written by John Bruce Lee and published by Department of Education Office of Educational. This book was released on 1999 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study examined the use of educational aid provided by employers to employees, including the types of employees and educational and training programs that employers support. Two National Center for Education Statistics data sets provided the data for the analysis: National Household Education Survey, which provides information describing all educational activities of adults, and National Postsecondary Student Aid Survey, which provides detailed information about how employers help students pay for postsecondary education. Some of the findings were the following: (1) 13 percent of adults participated in credential programs in 1995, compared with about 20 percent who participated in work-related or other structured programs; (2) 72 percent of adults employed as engineers, surveyors, or architects who enrolled in credential programs received financial assistance from their employers, compared with 50 percent of employees who were executives, administrators, and managers, 10 percent of employees who were marketing and sales workers, and 4 percent who were low-skilled manual laborers; (3) adults who worked part time were less likely to receive employer financial aid if they enrolled in credential programs (7 percent) than those who worked full time (37 percent); (4) 6 percent of all undergraduates received financial aid from their employers, averaging $932, and 13 percent of graduate and first-professional students received employer assistance averaging $2,451; and (5) male graduate students received approximately one-third more employer financial aid than female students. (The report includes 16 tables and 7 figures, a glossary, and technical notes.) (KC)

Download or read book Parental Financial Support for Undergraduate Education written by Susan P. Choy and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the role of parents in providing financial support for their financially dependent undergraduate children. It presents information on the extent to which parents provide their children with gifts, loans, and in-kind contributions; the amounts they provide; how the amounts compare with the expected family contributions determined by the student financial aid system; and the various types of savings and loan programs that parents use. The report used data from the 1986-87 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study to identify parents of 27,415 undergraduate students; these parents were sent questionnaires. Report highlights include the following: (1) 92 percent of financially dependent undergraduates received gifts (67 percent), loans (11 percent), or in-kind contributions (83 percent) from their parents, averaging $3,274; (2) white students were more likely to receive gifts than black students (70 percent versus 43 percent); (3) overall, 42 percent of the students had parents who saved to help them with their postsecondary education; (4) among the students whose parents saved, 46 percent had started when the student was in elementary school or before; (5) among students whose parents saved, 71 percent had set up accounts in the parents' names; and (6) only 14 percent of the students had parents who assumed one or more types of loans. The appendices contain technical notes and methodology and discussion of selected standard errors and unweighted Ns. (GLR)

Download or read book Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-07-29 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order for the United States to maintain the global leadership and competitiveness in science and technology that are critical to achieving national goals, we must invest in research, encourage innovation, and grow a strong and talented science and technology workforce. Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation explores the role of diversity in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce and its value in keeping America innovative and competitive. According to the book, the U.S. labor market is projected to grow faster in science and engineering than in any other sector in the coming years, making minority participation in STEM education at all levels a national priority. Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation analyzes the rate of change and the challenges the nation currently faces in developing a strong and diverse workforce. Although minorities are the fastest growing segment of the population, they are underrepresented in the fields of science and engineering. Historically, there has been a strong connection between increasing educational attainment in the United States and the growth in and global leadership of the economy. Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation suggests that the federal government, industry, and post-secondary institutions work collaboratively with K-12 schools and school systems to increase minority access to and demand for post-secondary STEM education and technical training. The book also identifies best practices and offers a comprehensive road map for increasing involvement of underrepresented minorities and improving the quality of their education. It offers recommendations that focus on academic and social support, institutional roles, teacher preparation, affordability and program development.
