Book Post migration Education of Immigrants Admitted in 2010 and 2011

Download or read book Post migration Education of Immigrants Admitted in 2010 and 2011 written by Hyeongsuk Jin and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To understand the heterogeneity of post-migration labour market and educational outcomes, this article focuses on immigrants who completed post-secondary education or apprenticeship training post-admission to Canada. It uses data on immigrants who were admitted in 2010 and 2011 through an economic immigration stream, studying those admitted as principal applicants with no prior temporary permits (such as work or study permits) seven years after admission. Understanding the pathways and outcomes of this group can allow a better understanding of the labour market integration of immigrants, and the impact that Canadian education can have on their economic outcomes.

Book Canadian Counselling and Counselling Psychology in the 21st Century

Download or read book Canadian Counselling and Counselling Psychology in the 21st Century written by Ada L. Sinacore and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian counsellors and counselling psychologists have made significant advances in mental health services and the broader field of applied psychology, but much of the counselling and counselling psychology scholarship has been published outside of Canada, rendering it difficult to identify as distinctly Canadian. This path-breaking book highlights the work of Canadian counsellors and counselling psychologists and focuses on issues pertinent to practising in Canada. Key topics such as scientific issues, health, wellness, prevention, career psychology, assessment, training and supervision, and social justice and multiculturalism are explored in detail. Using a strength-based framework, each chapter attends to societal factors, diversity of methodological frameworks, and an analysis of the challenges and future directions for the disciplines. Providing a common voice for a diverse group of students and professionals, Canadian Counselling and Counselling Psychology in the 21st Century will be of interest to counsellor educators, faculty in counsellor and counselling psychology training programs, and counsellors interested in advancing their understanding of the current state of the field.

Book Do educational attainment gender and age affect labour market outcomes of immigrants

Download or read book Do educational attainment gender and age affect labour market outcomes of immigrants written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The datasets used by the project include a range of large-scale surveys such as the Census, the Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada, the Ethnic Diversity Survey, the Workplace and Employee Survey, the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics, the Labour Force Survey and the Permanent Residents Data System. [...] THE DATA: 2006 CENSUS The census is one of the primary sources of information on the demographic, social and economic characteristics of Canada and Canadians (Statistics Canada, 2007). [...] Of the immigrant men and women who arrived between 2001 and 2006, 45.5% of men and 40.1% of women had a university degree, compared to 24.9% for men and 22.5% for women who arrived between 1981 and 1990. [...] At the bottom of the labour market, middle-aged adults between the ages of 35 and 44 years who did not finish high school have higher earnings than 45 to 64 year-olds with the same education. [...] On the other hand, the lowest earners for both Canadian-born and immigrants are those in the 25-34 age groups, recent entrants in the labour market.

Book Does returning to school after immigration affect labour market outcomes for immigrants

Download or read book Does returning to school after immigration affect labour market outcomes for immigrants written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The datasets used by the project include a range of large-scale surveys such as the Census, the Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada, the Ethnic Diversity Survey, the Workplace and Employee Survey, the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics, the Labour Force Survey and the Permanent Residents Data System. [...] A study in the Netherlands found that the length of stay in the host country, higher pre-immigration education level, and adverse macroeconomic conditions at arrival were all positively correlated with the enrolment of immigrants in schools following immigration (Tubergen and Werfhorst, 2007). [...] In the case of immigrants returning to school, the longer interruption in their work career, coupled with the fact that immigrants who have not returned to school had already had the opportunity to repair their human capital can result in lower income, higher unemployment rates, and lesser likelihood of holding full-time employment, at least in the first years following their arrival. [...] THE DATA: LONGITUDINAL SURVEY OF IMMIGRANTS TO CANADA This report uses data from the Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada (LSIC), which was a joint undertaking between Statistics Canada and Citizenship and Immigration Canada under the Policy Research Initiative. [...] The outcomes of the respondents presented in this report may not be comparable to the experiences of immigrants who landed in different time periods.

Book The Economics of Inequality Poverty and Discrimination in the 21st Century

Download or read book The Economics of Inequality Poverty and Discrimination in the 21st Century written by Robert S. Rycroft and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading scholars examine the conflicting paradigms of affluence and destitution in the United States—as well as other free societies—and discuss the influence of education, race, and status on economic mobility. While recent catastrophic events in New Orleans and Haiti may have magnified issues of social inequity, leaders have debated over poverty and discrimination for decades. Are the poor disadvantaged by the institutions of society or by the choices they make? Through two insightful volumes, the author examines differing academic and political perspectives to help shed light on the causes of poverty and inequality; the role that gender, race, age, or sexual preference plays in determining opportunity; and the effectiveness of current social and economic policies in balancing the inequity among disparate groups. The Economics of Inequality, Poverty, and Discrimination in the 21st Century consists of 2 volumes containing 32 papers divided into 5 categories: measurement, inequality and mobility, institutions and choices, demographic groups and discrimination, and policy. The papers—written by economists, sociologists, philosophers and lawyers—deal with the extent of inequality in the United States and how it compares to other countries, and the newly emerging evidence on the relationship between inequality and mobility within a society.
