RETURN ON INVESTMENTS IN POST-­‐SECONDARY EDUCATION  \n6.1 Net benefits for Canadians attaining tertiary education 26  \n2018 ENVI RO N M ENTAL SCAN • COL L EG E S ONTA R IO Graduates in the Economy 2  \nOver the past 25 years, rising Ontario employer skill requirements have led to an increase of over 900,000 more jobs for adults aged 25 to 44 with post-­‐secondary credentials, largely offset by a drop of 700,000 jobs for those without post-­‐secondary credentials.  \nEvery sector now employs fewer young adults without post-­‐secondary credentials. The largest per cent drops are in ‘traditional’ industries such as manufacturing, accommodation and food services.  \nOntario’s experience is consistent with other jurisdictions: employment rates for young adults without postsecondary education are now typically at least 25 percentage points lower than for post-­‐secondary graduates.  \nOntario’s exceptional level of post-­‐secondary completion rates is a key competitive advantage. Measured by the per cent of ‘tertiary’ graduates only (i.e., excluding tradespersons), Ontario ranks far above the U.S. and Europe. But when tradespersons are included, leading European countries score much higher.  \nWithin North America, Ontario has three times as many college graduates as the U.S., per capita. The graduates contribute to exports per capita at twice the U.S. level. Ontario competes with high postsecondary educational attainment states, such as Massachusetts and New York, in financial services, technology and entertainment, and with mid-­‐level post-­‐secondary educational attainment states, such as Michigan and Ohio, in manufacturing. Surprisingly, some southern U.S. states have post-­‐secondary educational attainment levels lower than Chile or Turkey.  \nOntario’s skills advantage is weakening. China, Japan, Korea and Indonesia now have three times as many","cbCaipcWZLWbImJM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipcWZLWbImJM","pdf",2597103,26,"English","# Highlights\n## Fewer jobs for young adults without post-secondary credentials\n## Matching credentials to employer needs: an international comparison\n## Matching credentials to employer needs: industry, entrepreneurship, and innovation\n## Access to post-secondary education in Ontario\n## Return on investments in post-secondary education","[{\"question\":\"What does the report say about jobs for young adults without post-secondary credentials in Ontario?\",\"answer\":\"It reports a drop of over 700,000 jobs for those without postsecondary credentials in Ontario over the past quarter century, while jobs for those with credentials increased by over 900,000.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Ontario’s post-secondary completion rate compare with other jurisdictions?\",\"answer\":\"Ontario’s tertiary completion rates are described as a key competitive advantage, ranking far above the U.S. and Europe when measured by tertiary graduates only.\"},{\"question\":\"What return on investment does the report highlight for post-secondary education?\",\"answer\":\"It states that graduate incomes are significantly higher than high school graduates, and governments benefit from higher tax revenues due to those improved earnings.\"}]","GRADUATES IN THE ECONOMY 2018 - ENVIRONMENTAL SCAN | PDF",1792047685,66]
