Assiniboine Community College released its 2021 Graduate Satisfaction & Employment survey and it shows that most graduates surveyed stayed in Manitoba for work after they graduated.
93 per cent of them, in fact.
"It's one of the stats we're most proud of is that 93 per cent stay in Manitoba after graduation, especially since usually around 85 or 86 per cent of the students originate as Manitobans", said Mark Frison, President of Assinboine Community College.
The survey also showed that 80 per cent of graduates surveyed say they are working in a career related to the chosen field of study after nine months since graduating.
"I think it's excellent that 80 per cent have jobs in their field of study especially after only 9 months. Sometimes it can take an adjustment period so for them that quickly to find jobs in their field of study is a good indication that there's a strong labour market and that the programs are well-oriented towards it", Frison explained.
Nine out of ten graduates also said they would recommend Assiniboine Community College to a friend or family member.
