Today, Statistics Canada is releasing a research paper entitled "Overqualification among 2012 and 2013 bachelor's graduates."
Using a database created by integrating information from the Postsecondary Student Information System (PSIS) with 2016 Census data, this article examines the extent to which 2012 and 2013 graduates with a bachelor's degree, who did not go back to school full-time after graduating, held a job requiring a high school diploma at most when they entered the labour market in 2016.
