[...] The integrity and success of Ontario’s PSE system is linked not only to whether students have equitable access at the point of entry, but also to whether all students have the support they need to graduate and achieve success in the labour market. [...] HEQCO partnered with the Social Research and Demonstration Corporation (SRDC)1 to leverage Statistics Canada’s Education and Labour Market Longitudinal Platform (ELMLP) and its various linkages to study non-completion and earnings outcomes by Indigenous or racial identity, disability status and household structure. [...] The explanatory variables included in the model are categorical and the reference group for each variable is in parentheses next to the bolded variable title. [...] The majority of explanatory variables included in the model — other than the elapsed time since the start of PSE enrollment — are categorical and the reference group for each variable is in parentheses next to the bolded variable title.
