Abstract

Over the past two decades, American women’s positions and opportunities in the educational sphere have improved dramatically which gave women a chance to make a substantial educational progress. The university education gave personal advancement to American women to be extensively involved in social, political, and economic success of the country. University education is associated with better labor market outcomes including higher earnings, lower poverty and lower unemployment. In addition, education is linked to various other benefits including higher job satisfaction, better marginal benefits, and better health. Understanding the relationship between educational attainment and employment outcomes requires accurate data about identifications that have value in the job market.
