Overview of GSI dashboard Factbook-Outcomes: Graduate Employment and Transfer page

Summary

Brief review of data presented on the Graduate Employment and Transfer page of GSI dashboard Factbook-Outcomes.

Steps 

Overview

This page presents results from our "Employment and Transfer Reports" which are based on the results of the "GCC Graduate Follow-up Survey" combined with transfer data from the "National Student Clearinghouse".

It is important to note that employment and salary information is self-reported by graduate survey respondents.

A prompt is provided allowing users to select by program(s) and the default is to show data for all programs.
