Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: While much research has examined how education influences work outcomes, fewer scholars have questioned whether or how the relationships between schools and labor markets might influence educational outcomes. With their rising enrollments, two-year colleges are an increasingly important site of the school-to-work transition, and their explicit links with local labor markets can provide an excellent source of information about the processes by which linkages might influence student outcomes. Using survey data from a local sample of 14 public and private two-year colleges, we describe how college-employer contacts influence students’ confidence about and efforts at college. Using national longitudinal data (BPS and IPEDS), we examine whether the patterns identified in our local sample hold nationally, testing the influence of job placement services on students’ timely degree completion.
