To convert this current dollar data to constant dollar amounts for comparison over time, it is recommended that the Consumer Price Index be used. For the index and further details on converting see Table F.1.3. Due to differences in the index chosen, converted data may not be directly comparable to that in Education Indicators in Canada: Report of the Pan-Canadian Education Indicators Program (PCEIP) 2015.
University includes a level of certification reported as: University diploma or certificate below bachelor level; Bachelor's degree or first professional degree; University diploma or certificate above bachelor level but below master level; Master's degree; or Doctorate.
Please note that the National Graduates Survey (NGS) 2013, class of 2009-2010 was conducted three years after graduation, whereas previous National Graduate Surveys were conducted two years after graduation. While information on graduates at the time of graduation is comparable across cycles, information on graduate’s activities at the time of the interview are not directly comparable. For example, labour market outcomes and debt repayment pertain to status three years after graduation for the NGS 2013 compared to two years after graduation for other cycles of NGS.
