The Australian Government has released its Australian Jobs 2011 report, highlighting the links between higher education and positive labour market outcomes, such as lowering unemployment and higher average pay.

 

Australian Jobs 2011, prepared by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations, provides information about Australian employment figures, aiming to help job seekers and employment service providers.

 

“It is essential that job seekers, students and employment service providers have access to up-to-date information about what the opportunities are and where the jobs are now, and where opportunities and new jobs are likely to arise in the next five years,” Federal Minister for Employment Participation and Child Care, Kate Ellis, said.
