This is an annual publication showing the first destinations of HE students six months after graduation i.e. the numbers in employment, further training and unemployed. The key figures are the proportions of graduates who are employed/unemployed (unemployment rates of graduates are typically lower than the general unemployment rate). For 2002/03, significant changes were made to the coverage and content of the base data from which the SFR is derived, which means that the figures are not directly comparable with those for previous years. [Prepared and published by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), the figures are produced in conjunction with the Department]
