Exploring the data
The College-to-Jobs Map is designed to help economic development professionals, educators, employers, and policymakers gain insight into education and labor market trends in their regions. The data can shed new light on the workforce pipeline—from college demographics to occupational trends—over time. We used the Map to answer one of our own questions: is higher education keeping up with employment in the United States?
In the weeks and months ahead, we will publish more insights from the College-to-Jobs Map. Share your data insights with us at projectonworkforce@hks.harvard.edu.
The College-to-Jobs Map is part of the College-to-Jobs Initiative. This effort, led by the Project on Workforce, highlights the misalignment between higher education and employment in the U.S. Click here to learn more about the initiative.
