the extent to which 1982, 1986, 1990 and 1995 graduates postsecondary
programs had been successful in obtaining employment since graduation;
the relationship between the graduates' programs of study and
the employment subsequently obtained; the graduates' job and career
satisfaction; the rates of under-employment and unemployment;
the type of employment obtained related to career expectations
and qualification requirements; and the influence of postsecondary
education on occupational achievement. The information is directed
