The New Hampshire Technical Institute (NHTI) and the six New Hampshire Vocational-Technical Colleges (NHVTC) offer collegiate education preparing individuals for direct employment in business, industry, health, and service related fields. At the completion of the 1984-85 academic year, the college/institute system graduated 1,080 students from 47 different programs. Of these graduates, 96% were satisfactorily placed as of November 1, 1985, with 78% being gainfully employed. Of the employed graduates, 96% were working in a job directly or closely related to their college program. Many positions were obtained as a result of the lifetime placement service available at each college. Graduates continued to show a preference for working, living, and attending school in New Hamsphire, with 81% of the employed graduates accepting jobs in the state and 89% indicating that they commuted to work from the same town listed as their residence while at school. The average job entry salary increased significantly from the previous year, and it was estimated that employed graduates would have a total gross dollar earning power of $15,267,826 during their first year of employment. The placement report contains tables providing separate job placement data for NHTI and NHVTC graduates. Information on courses and degree programs offered through the Division of Community Education, and a list of employers who interviewed 1985 graduates are also included. (EJV)
