Career Placement and Graduate Transfer Report, 1997.
Community Coll. of Rhode Island, Warwick.
This report provides data on career and transfer outcomes of 1997 graduates from the Community College of Rhode Island (CCRI). A brief preface explains that surveys were distributed to 1,551 graduates from 1997, with a total response rate of 84.8 percent (n=1,315). Results from the survey indicate that, with small exception, 1997 graduates are employed and/or continuing their professional studies. The statistical breakdown reveals that 86.9 percent of the 1997 graduates are employed (43.4 percent full-time), 39.5 percent are continuing their education (28.5 percent full-time), and 3.0 percent continue to seek employment. Data on graduate outcomes are presented for the following 25 programs: business administration, cardio-respiratory care, chemical technology, clinical laboratory technology, computer studies, criminal justice and legal studies, dental assistant, dental hygiene, electronics, engineering, engineering technology, fine arts, fire science, human services, liberal arts, machine design, manufacturing technology, nursing (associate degree and licensed practical), office administration, phlebotomy, physical therapist assistance, process control technology, radiography, retail management, science and technical studies. For each program, information is offered on the number of responding graduates, percentages of graduates employed or graduates employed from each, and receiving colleges, including the number of graduates enrolled by major. Appendixes provide a list of CCRI programs and concentrations, the survey instrument, graphs of placement and transfer outcomes, and a comparison of 1995, 1996, and 1997 graduates. (AS)
