A follow-up study was conducted to gather data on the employment and earnings of the 1993 graduates of Guam Community College's various programs. A total of 464 graduates were surveyed, including the following: 114 of the college's 189 secondary education program graduates; all 26 apprenticeship program graduates; 36 associate of science degree recipients, 21 vocational certificate recipients, and 104 criminal justice academy certificate recipients; and 86 graduates of the adult high school program. As of 1995, 63% of the secondary graduate respondents were employed full time, with males' and females' median hourly wages equaling $7.07 and $6.89, respectively. All 26 apprenticeship graduates were employed full time with a median hourly wage of $12.76. Of the postsecondary program graduates, 74% were employed full or part time and 53% were pursuing additional education. The mean hourly wage of postsecondary graduates working full time in jobs related to their training was $10.25. Of the adult high school graduates, 44% were employed full time at a mean hourly wage of $7.82 and 39.5% were continuing their education either full or part time.
