🎓 Canada's Post-Secondary Graduates Increased by Over 30%
Over the past decade, there has been a 30% increase in post-secondary graduates between 2010 and 2020. This increase stems from various factors, including increased access to education, government policies to promote education, and economic factors. The number of post-secondary graduates has followed a broadly upward trend except for a decline observed in 2009 due to the global financial crisis, which impacted enrollment rates and delayed graduations. Following this downturn, the number of graduates steadily recovered, reaching nearly 600K by 2020
