Title: RESULTS OF THE VOCATIONAL EDUCATION DATA SYSTEM EMPLOYER FOLLOW-UP SURVEY FOR MASSACHUSETTS COMMUNITY COLLEGES
Author: Carifio, James

Appeared in: Community college journal of research and practice
Paging: Volume 16 (1992) nr. 3 pages 293-303
Year: 1992
Contents: This article presents the results of the Vocational Education Data System employer follow-up (EFU) survey for graduates of 15 public community colleges who were employed full time between 1 and 2 years after graduation (N = 588). In general, these community college graduates were rated between good and very good on the quality of work and preparation EFU items. No correlations were found between EFU ratings and average hourly wage, even within program areas, indicating that the average hourly wage of community college graduates is a flawed index of program or graduate quality. No significant differences were found between female and male EFU ratings, but large significant differences in average hourly wage were found, even within program areas. This particular and direct finding tends to support current contentions that women are not receiving equal pay for equal quality or work in the marketplace.
