    ABOUT THIS RELEASE

    ABS Education Variables are used to determine the general level of educational achievement of the Australian population and of specific groups in Australian society; to investigate the relationship between levels of education and employment outcomes, income and other socio-economic variables; and as proxy measures of socio-economic status. Some Variables identify the fields or areas of educational achievement of the Australian population, and the currency of those achievements.
