Notes
- Commencing 2000 to 2001, Graduation Rates are based on tracking individual students, where, for example, the 2022 to 2023 KPI Graduation Rate is based on students who started 1-year programs in 2020 to 2021, 2-year programs in 2018 to 2019, 3-year programs in 2016 to 2017 and 4-year programs in 2015 to 2016, and who had graduated by 2021 to 2022.
- KPI Graduation Rates include changes resulting from the KPI Review and Adjustment process (where required).
Where we get our information
We get the information directly from colleges, graduates, students and employers. This includes using data from:
- College Graduate Outcomes Survey
- conducted 3 times a year by phone
- asks college graduates about their success finding work
- employers also surveyed (if graduates consent)
- Student Satisfaction Survey
- conducted in classes in early February
- asks students to rate things like relevance of what they’re learning to what employers are looking for
Colleges report their graduation rates following ministry guidelines. We then use their data to calculate a graduation rate for college students across the province.
