KPI Survey Results Highlight Student Success at Sheridan

The Ontario Colleges’ Key Performance Indicators (KPI) survey results were released today, and once again, Sheridan achieved high scores on several key measures that reflect the institution’s commitment to student success.

With an overall graduation rate of 68.4%, Sheridan exceeds the provincial average (65.7%), a result that is even more marked in its degree programs, which achieved a graduation rate of 75.2% - the highest among Ontario colleges.  Sheridan’s graduation rate for diplomas and advanced diplomas outranked all other colleges in the Greater Toronto Area.

A look at graduate employment rate reveals a high rate of success for Sheridan degree graduates, who experienced an 88.4% employment rate, ahead of the provincial average of 84%. 

Survey results also indicated a high level of student satisfaction with their Sheridan experience, based on specific criteria.  Over 86% of students surveyed indicated that they were satisfied that they were gaining the knowledge and skills necessary for their future careers, while over 80% were pleased with the overall quality of the learning experiences in their programs. 

The KPI survey was introduced by the Ontario government in 1998 to collect and report performance data on Ontario colleges.  The survey is conducted by an independent research company.
