A Message from the President

Students who are successful in completing a program ofstudy at the Community College of Rhode Island achieve theireducation or career goals by transferring to a four-year collegeor university, obtaining employment in their chosen field or by acombination of work and continued study.

The Report on Career Placement and Transfer of 1996Graduates documents the education and career activities of our

graduates once they leave CCRI. The report provides information about the employment statusand salary ranges of graduates who elect full-time employment as well as a listing of colleges anduniversities chosen by those who went on to continue their education on a full-time basis. Theinformation is useful in advising current CCRI students, and is a valuable resource for guidancecounselors in secondary schools throughout the state, and for businesses and industries that arepotential employers of our graduates.

The Community College is proud of its placement and transfer record. I'm sure that youwill find the information contained in their report impressive as well as useful.

Preface

Each year, the Office of Cooperative Education and Career Placement, with support fromthe Computer Resource Center and the Office of Institutional Research and Planning, conductsa study on the employment and continuing education status of the previous year's graduates.

This year, a survey for the class of 1996 was distributed to 1669 graduates. Two mailingsand a follow-up telephone survey produced a total response rate of 82.7 percent. A samplequestionnaire is provided in Appendix B.

Results from the survey indicate that, with small exception, 1996 graduates are employedand/or continuing their professional studies. The statistical breakdown reveals that 85.7 percentof the 1996 graduates are employed (53.3 percent full-time), 36.9 percent are continuing theireducation (28.5 percent full-time) and 4.1 percent continue to seek employment. Informationcomparing responses of graduates from the classes of 1993, 1994 and 1995 can be found inAppendix C.
