For parents who believe a child’s happiness is linked to having a degree, it may surprise them to learn that apprentices are just as happy as university graduates, according to a report released by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER).
Education and happiness in the school-to-work transition examines the relationship between individuals’ highest level of education and their self-rated happiness. It is based on extensive information provided by young people over 10 years of their lives (15 to 25 years), as part of the Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (LSAY).
