Description

This dataset shows educational attainment by occupation in percentages. Data is available by detailed SOC, but only at the national level. Data is only available for the root occupation (00-0000) and most detailed occupations (e.g. 11-1031).

In order to preserve the integrity of the raw data, no aggregations are performed along the Occupation dimension. Consequently, queries can only include identity mappings for Occupation constraints; i.e. users can only request a single occupation code per mapping.

Use Cases

Questions answered by this dataset:

What percent of Registered Nurses have Associate's degrees? What percent have Bachelor's degrees?

Metrics

Percent: What percent of the occupation selected has achieved the education level indicated

Filters

Occupation (5-digit SOC)
