Despite current discourse that calls to question the value of higher education today, research continues to show that a college degree increases lifetime earnings, job stability, and long-term well-being. For Latino students, degrees can transform life trajectories—not only for individuals but for entire families.  \n● Latinos have made significant strides in higher education, with college enrollment increasing over the past two decades. Between 2000-2023 , Latino college enrollment grew from 49% to 58% .  \n● During the same time, Latino college completion also grew but continues to lag behind enrollment. While completion rose from 23% to 41%, only 29% of Latino adults hold an associate degree or higher—compared to 49% of White adults.  \n● Latinos have the highest labor force participation rate of any racial/ethnic group. In 2021, 66% of Latinos were in the labor force, compared to 64% of Asians, 62% of Whites, and 61% of African Americans.  \n● Yet, Latinos are underrepresented in high-paying, professional roles that require postsecondary credentials. Only 25% of Latinos were in management and professional jobs in 2021, compared to 58% of Asians, 43% of Whites, and 34% of African Americans.  \n● Latinos will drive future workforce growth. By 2031, it is projected that Latinos will represent 91% of new U.S. workers, making up one in five workers nationwide.  \nStrengthening pathways from college to career for Latino, and all, students is key to our country, future workforce, and advancing economic mobility.  \nStrategies & Practices for Advancing Post-Completion Success  \nLatinos are driving the nation’s economic growth, and higher education has the responsibility to ensure that all students thrive and succeed beyond degree completion. Excelencia in Education identified three key post-completion strategies from engaging with institutions in the Excelenciain Action network—preparing Latino, and all, students for success beyond graduation, linking them to meaningful workforce opportunities, and measuring post-completion outcomes.  \n\n| Strategy 1: Prepare Students for Workforce Success | Strategy 2: Link Students to Workforce Opportunities | Strategy 3: Measure and Track Outcomes |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Embed career readiness into | Build partnerships with employers | Use data to understand alumni |\n| academic pathways through High- | and community organizations to | outcomes, align programs with |\n| Impact Practices (HIPs) such as | create pipelines for Latino | workforce needs, and strengthen |\n| research, internships, and service | graduates. | accountability. |\n| learning. |  |  |\n| Example: University of Illinois | Example: University of Texas | Example: San Francisco State |\n| Chicago’s Crossing Latinidades | Arlington’s Spanish Community | University tracks alumni |\n| Humanities Research Initiative | Translation Program connects | employment through LinkedIn and |\n| prepares doctoral students for | Latino students to 35+ local | First Destination/Exit Surveys to |\n| academic and professional career | organizations across North Texas | inform institutional efforts. |\n| pathways. | through real-world experiences. |  |\n\nSource: Santiago, D. , Labandera, E. , Arroyo, C. & Nour, S.
