- Articles and reports: 81-599-X2023001Description: This fact sheet uses 2016 data to examine the education outcomes of First Nations youth aged 19 to 30 in secondary and postsecondary learning, alongside characteristics that may affect their educational experience. This study is guided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (TRC) Calls to Action, which recognize the importance of equitable education in the success of Indigenous peoples. Comparisons between First Nations and non-Indigenous youth are presented in response to the TRC’s 55th Call to Action.Release date: 2023-06-21
- Stats in brief: 11-627-M2023031Description: Statistics Canada, using the data collected for the Postsecondary Student Information System (PSIS), has long published education indicators for Canadian public postsecondary institutions. Data on private postsecondary institutions have not been explored at the same depth and breadth by Statistics Canada. This infographic attempts to address this data gap through the Education and Labour Market Longitudinal Platform (ELMLP) with results from the study of the T2202 Tuition and Enrolment Certificate as a new source of data.Release date: 2023-06-06

Release date: 2022-11-30 - Articles and reports: 75-006-X202100100009Description:
This study examines the educational attainment and labour market outcomes of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit women primarily aged 25 to 64 using data from the 2006 and 2016 Census of Population, the 2017 Aboriginal Peoples Survey and the 2018 National Graduates Survey.

Release date: 2021-10-20 - Articles and reports: 81-595-M2023002Description: This fact sheet uses 2016 Census of Population data linked to the Remoteness Index to examine the relationship between remoteness and high school completion for First Nations people, Métis, and Inuit aged 19 to 45. The Remoteness index measures geographic proximity to service centers for each populated community, which is an important determinant of socio-economic, education, and health outcomes. This study attempts to disentangle factors relevant to educational attainment and shed light on the learning context of First Nations people, Métis, and Inuit.Release date: 2023-06-21
- Articles and reports: 81-595-M2021004Description:
Using a new 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. The overqualification rate is examined according to several characteristics, such as sex, field of study, province, graduation year, belonging to a group designated as a visible minority and immigration status.
Release date: 2021-09-21 - Stats in brief: 98-200-X2016025Description:
This Census in Brief article examines the jobs of young bachelor’s degree holders and identifies how field of study is associated with occupational outcomes. It shows how graduates from a given field of study are distributed across broad occupational groups and how overqualification rates differ by field.
Release date: 2017-11-29 - Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202100800005Description:
Educators who are part of Indigenous children’s own communities can play an important role in providing them with early learning experiences that reflect their cultural heritage and traditions. This study examines the sociodemographic and employment characteristics of early learning and child care (ELCC) workers who are First Nations people, Métis or Inuit. Using 2016 long-form Census data, two occupational groups were studied – early childhood educators and assistants (ECEA) and child care providers (CCP). Comparisons were also made with non-Indigenous ELCC workers in the same occupational groups.
Release date: 2021-08-25 - 9. Portrait of Women by the Relative Remoteness of their Communities, Series 2: Educational AttainmentArticles and reports: 45-20-00022022001Description:
Using data from the 2016 Census of Population and the updated Remoteness Index Classification, this paper focuses on the educational attainment, type of postsecondary qualification (e.g. apprenticeship or trades, college or CEGEP, or university degree at the bachelor level or higher), and the fields of study of women by the relative remoteness of their communities.
Release date: 2022-02-08 - Articles and reports: 75-006-X202300100001Description: Racialized Canadians are generally more likely than their non-racialized, non-Indigenous counterparts to pursue a university-level education. Despite this, their labour market outcomes are often less favourable. Using data from the integrated file of the Postsecondary Student Information System, the 2016 Census and the T1 Family File, this article compares the employment earnings, unionization rate and pension plan coverage rate of racialized graduates with a bachelor’s degree with those of non-racialized, non-Indigenous graduates, two years after graduation.Release date: 2023-01-18
