<p>The department has published seven statistical first releases and one ad hoc release
for graduate employment outcomes using Longitudinal Education Outcomes (LEO) data.
These cover the employment outcomes for undergraduates and postgraduates one, three,
five and 10 years after graduating. Figures are published at institution and subject
level as well as national level. These publications are available at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-higher-education-graduate-employment-and-earnings"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-higher-education-graduate-employment-and-earnings</a>.</p><p>Students’
ability to make informed choices is at the heart of the higher education (HE) reform
agenda. We are keen that these releases are easily accessible by HE students. We have
therefore launched a Higher Education Open Data Competition, which is part of the
work we are doing to improve the way we provide information to students.</p><p>The
competition aims to give students full access to valuable data on graduate outcomes
- including aggregated, publically available LEO data - on an accessible and innovative
digital platform.</p><p>By supporting the development of new tools, the competition
will help all applicants, regardless of their background, make decisions that are
right for them and get value for money.</p><p>We plan to make appropriate extracts
of the data available in the ONS Secure Research Service, in late 2018.</p><p>In addition
to this, we currently make data available, under contract, to the following research
groups:</p><p>Centre for Vocational Education Research,</p><p>Institute for Fiscal
Studies,</p><p>University of Westminster.</p>
