Flexible career patterns: graduate redefinitions of outcomes in the new labour market

灵活的职业模式：毕业生对新劳动力市场结果的重新定义。该研究将确定毕业生对“职业”意义的重新定义。以及灵活职业模式的构建，以应对劳动力市场的变化。该研究项目的核心是对1300名澳大利亚毕业生进行为期10年的延长研究，这些毕业生现在距离毕业还有5-7年的时间。新兴主题的更广泛意义是通过与加拿大队列和较年轻的澳大利亚队列的比较来检验的。研究结果对制定符合澳大利亚年轻人不断变化的需求的义务教育后培训政策和项目具有重要意义。

Flexible career patterns: graduate redefinitions of outcomes in the new labour market. The research will identify graduate redefinitions of the meaning of ?career? and the construction of flexible career patterns in response to changes in the labour market. The centrepiece of the research program is the extension of a ten-year cohort of 1300 Australian graduates who are now 5-7 years out from graduation. The wider significance of the emerging themes is tested through comparison with a Canadian cohort and with a younger Australian cohort. The research findings are significant to the formation of responsive post-compulsory education and training policy and programs that meet the changing needs of young Australians.
