New KCEWS Report Shows Benefits of Kentuckians Earning GED Diplomas

The Kentucky Adult Education County Profiles Report, which provides statistics by state, workforce region and county is produced by KCEWS, utilizing data from the Kentucky Longitudinal Data System. The KCEWS report indicates that 7,116, or about four out of every five, of the GED graduates who attended postsecondary institutions attended colleges in the Kentucky Community and Technical College System. The most popular major was health professions and related programs. Other top majors included mechanic and repair technologies/technicians and business, management, marketing and related support services.

KCEWS cited as example on Making the Most of Workforce Data: State Collaboration with External Entities for Actionable Research

State agencies have used federal funding to develop longitudinal data systems that enable valuable cross-agency data sharing and analysis. While building a strong data infrastructure is a crucial step, making use of the data is just as important. Kentucky has strategically collaborated with external organizations to enhance their capacity for research, data analysis and interpretation, and unbiased assessment of outcomes.
