PSEO South Dakota Board of Regents (SDBOR)

Post-Secondary Employment Outcomes (PSEO) are experimental tabulations developed by the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) program at the U.S. Census Bureau. This record includes data for the South Dakota Board of Regents (SDBOR) system.

PSEO data provide earnings and employment outcomes for college and university graduates by degree level, degree major, and post-secondary institution.

These statistics are generated by matching university transcript data with a national database of jobs, using state-of-the-art confidentiality protection mechanisms to protect the underlying data. Releases are annual. The PSEO are made possible through data sharing partnerships between universities, university systems, State Departments of Education, State Labor Market Information offices, and the U.S. Census Bureau. PSEO data are available for post-secondary institutions whose transcript data have been made available to the Census Bureau through a data-sharing agreement. The data contains a degree file, enrollment file, and demographic file.

Requests for PSEO data should include details on how the project will help to develop, validate, or administer predictive tests; administer student aid programs; or improve instruction.
