National Graduates Survey - 2005 

This survey was designed to determine such factors as: the extent to
which graduates of postsecondary programs had been successful in
obtaining employment since graduation; the relationship between the
graduates' programs of study and the employment subsequently obtained;
the graduates' job and career satisfaction; the rates of
under-employment and unemployment; the type of employment obtained
related to career expectations and qualification requirements; and the
influence of postsecondary education on occupational achievement.
