Univ. of Utah Utah Department of Workforce Services (DWS)

Initiative
UDA Initiatives
Chronic Absenteeism in K-12 Inter-generational Poverty Post-Secondary Enrollment/Retention rates by
County/District Mathematics Remediation Governor’s “PACE” metrics (STEM focused) 1st and 5th Year Wage Information by degree/certificate
Potential
First time large legacy data systems have been connected
Shared objective to get information to the public A lot of data quality verification - slow, labor intensive Best practices/procedures established
WAGE DATA
Benefits of Using Wage Data
Macro-level snapshot of the industries postsecondary graduates are employed
Historical trends of aggregated wage and educational attainment data by industry
Utilizes state level data
UDA Wage Information History Data first compiled July 2013, shared at August Education
Interim Committee by USOE Culmination of two years of work to enable large legacy
data systems to “talk” to each other First time Utah specific wage data and USHE
degree/certificate information have been merged by matching individual records
USHE web interactive of wage data by degree/certificate and by institution—January 2014
Wage Records Limitations
Only quarterly wages No hourly wage or hours worked Based on quarterly wage reports estimated to an annual level
Only contains industry information No job titles – Cannot verify that an individual with a degree in a
health-related program is performing a healthcare related job function
No employer - A healthcare organization employs more than just employees with a degree/certificate in health-related college programs
Only includes wage info in DWS Unemployment Insurance (UI) Database
UI wage data accounts for only part of the state’s wage earners Only an estimated 50% of DWS UI data provides a workable
match to a USHE 1st-year degree holder
Wage Records Limitations

USHE’s interest in Longitudinal Data
1. Data gap between high school and college information2. Informing students with relevant employment and info
associated with degrees/programs of study Example: High School Feedback report pilot
