The U.S. Census Bureau and the Local Employment Dynamics (LED) Partnership in collaboration with the Council for Community and Economic Research (C2ER) and the Labor Market Information (LMI) Institute, welcomes Andrew Foote as he presents, “Post-Secondary Employment Outcomes (PSEO) the Past, the Present and the Future.” Recently the U.S. Census Bureau released data for institutions from six new data partners in the PSEO experimental data product. PSEO now includes data on 825 institutions, which cover more than 29% of all college graduates in the United States in 2015.

PSEO is an experimental data product generated by linking graduate transcript records to LEHD data on graduates of participating post-secondary institutions in the United States. PSEO Explorer has been updated to display data for these new institutions.
