  21. Placement Data for SUS Bachelor’s Degrees Florida has regularly collected employment placement data since the late 1980s. These data can be used to identify bachelor’s degree disciplines where a substantial number off graduates are placed in Florida jobs plus additional details such as quarterly earnings. In the example below, disciplines were sorted first by placement rate, then by earnings. Note: These data are for 2006-07 graduates based on Florida employment in the late fall of 2007.

  25. Concluding Remarks • 1. The linkage between employment opportunity, economic prosperity, and the educational system-particularly postsecondary education-is as critical to the nation’s future and to Florida’s role in that future. • 2. There are sources of data that can and should be used to inform decisions about the types degrees to be offered that are based on historical trends, tempered by recent events. Consider: • occupational projections by the Agency for Workforce Innovation. • occupational needs analysis conducted by state organizations. • placement data indicating which disciplines provide educated workers to which Florida industries. • regional, as well as state level information from employers and organizations that represent them. • 3. Sources need be considered that look beyond the “status quo” and relatively short term needs of the existing economy toward a new, more competitive economy for Florida.
