2019-11-21 14:00 - 14:30
Concurrent enrollment/dual credit research has established that concurrent enrollment increases the likelihood students will attend college and succeed once they get there.

We will discuss the use of administrative data from the University of Texas System, as well as the unemployment insurance wage records from the Texas Workforce Commission to help postsecondary education professionals understand better what the earning outcomes may be for dual credit students by showing first- and fifth-year earnings outcomes and the types of industries in which the graduates are working.
