Measuring the Economic Success of Florida's Graduates: Economic Security Report 2018
American Institutes for Research
The Florida Economic Security Report details economic outcomes of recent completers from Florida's public postsecondary educational institutions. Data from the State University System of Florida (SUS), the Florida College System (FCS), and District Technical Centers (DTCs) are included in this report. The report aims to document the variation in earnings, employment, continuing education, and public assistance among completers who have earned degrees or certificates from these three systems of postsecondary education. The results show that economic outcomes are correlated with a student's selected degree or certificate, credential level, and institution. The data discussed in this report reflect outcomes for 870,958 completers in their first year after graduation over a five-year period from academic years 2011-12 to 2015-16. Throughout this discussion, outcomes one year after graduation refer to completers during the 2011-16 period. The data also include economic outcomes for 2011-12 completers five years after graduation. Throughout this report, all outcomes five years after graduation are for completers in the 2011-12 cohort. The exploration of economic outcomes begins with a review of statewide outcomes. The report continues with a review of employment and wage outcomes (by credential and institution), continuing education trends, and rates of public assistance. The report concludes with a discussion on debt levels and labor market outlooks.
